Xfree questions do not belong here. Interix questions do NOT belong here, unless they somehow relate to cygwin. > I sure would use cygwin but > my boss really digs Interix because it is not emulated, and our tests with > most ported apps is really faster than using interix (way fast), please > help! or they will start coding the apps in visual basic!!!! and our current > linux boxes will have to be migrated to windows... Let me see if I understand: You say "interix is better than cygwin, and you must use interix regardless, because your boss likes it." So you want OUR help to get your code working with a DIFFERENT product? Why should we? Please see http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html to understand the motivations behind the coders on public mailing lists. Then ask yourself, given that information, why subscribers to *this* mailing list would assist you. On the cygwin-xfree list, you *could* pose this question as "Can cygwin-xfree work with the interix runtime instead of cygwin?" The answer is probably no without significant work, but at least the question would be (sortof) ontopic there. It is totally offtopic here. --Chuck -- 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/
