That brings me to a question I wanted to ask for a long time? Where's cygwin's php and/or mysql. They probably got a lot going against them but they are peoples choise. At least some communication would be nice. And now riscing the lart, why doesn't cygwin cross the border and take advantage of ported software. Lets face it, cygwin will never bring posix to windows, but if it just posixs windows with a few cheats that nobody cares about hey....... OK back under the stone. I crawl. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGCtjS8LhtcVSmguYRAlNUAKCDr4kGPWrpo0CWn1PqQud2Hx9q2wCfUSpi QzjXZun6GK6aEY25ow6OryA= =C3DU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
