Myers who maintains bsd-games and was able to port most of them. I had a few problems where it is felt that cygwin should be updated to handle the situations. These problems are cygwin specific and Linux handles them already. 1. I needed err.h and err.c from From http://www.canonical.org/~graken/sw/err.h.html 2. I needed include/endian.h and include/bits/endian.h from my linux box. 3. There was no include/ifaddrs.h ... not sure what to do here. 4. The shell does not handle (?) in case statements To get it to work I had to change "(?)" to "?)" 5. LINE_MAX (normally 2048) was undefined 6. brk is not defined -- Cheers, /X\ David A.
