Last file date for win-bash was 2011 and for gnuwin32 was 2010. Bill needed to instruct others using Cygwin how to operate with a native application. There is no dependence on bash or other scripting language on Bill's behalf. -- cyg Simple -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
