Actually I don't have any problem about this. I just want cygwin more colorful as most of *NIX terminals do, i.e. red for tar/zip files, green for executables. And I notice that if I touch a new file on cygiwn, the new-created file has no executable attribute. Based on that, I wonder whether I can change the default attributes for files which have existed before cygwin is installed. -- Best Regards, Pan Ruochen -- 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
