Yes, again, I'd just like to be consistent in cygwin. While there are a few isFooBar type of things in the code, for the most part we don't do things that way here. I don't have a strong feeling either way but I find it jarring to see things done one way in one section of the code and another in other sections. So, I change this kind of thing when I stumble across it. So, I agree with Robert. Lets try to stick with the current way of doing things since the majority of the code does things that way. Also see my 1 == foo commentary earlier. cgf
