If everything is CygWin, then everything works just dandy. But, something happens when a cygwin program runs a non-cygwin program (or vice-versa): The launched app will disregard it's parent's "console" and create it's own. I've been trying to reproduce it with some relatively simple -mno-cygwin app, but so far, I've been unable to make any progress. -Rolf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
