this sounds like the problem i posted about the other day that trying to execute gcc doesn't work but gcc.exe does. it's a pity. i wish someone had an explanation why it happens with some programs like gcc (and mode) but not others. a solution would be even better. but i've given up trying to compile python modules so i can live with the failure. -- 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
