Cygutils is a collection of useful(?) tools for the cygwin platform. This is a content update and feature enhancement.
[[ compiled using gcc-4.5.3-3 ]] CHANGES (from cygutils-1.4.6-1) ================================ * Integrate cygstart with FD.o menu and mimetype system. (Yaakov Selkowitz) * Remove ascii utility; replaced by separate package derived from ESR's implementation http://catb.org/~esr/ascii/ * Remove realpath utility; replaced by new implementation provided by coreutils (8.15 and above). TODO (call for patches): ================================ * Update lpr.cc, mkshortcut.c, readshortcut.c to use cygwin-1.7 cygwin_conv_path instead of deprecated cygwin_conv_to_win32_path. * Update (some?) utilities to handle unicode filenames, similar to IWAMURO Motonori's work on cygstart. Which utilities need this? mkshortcut and lpr, probably. Any others? -- Charles Wilson volunteer cygutils maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
