But i was using this feature in order to check that no cygwin process was left behind when i switch to a new cygwin1.dll (eg for a snapshot). Here is how. I use 'echo \\ /nonexistent*' in my .cshrc. This triggers the warning. That way, if some process from the previous cygwin1.dll was left somewhere in the background, the warning is not displayed and i get the (visual) indication that something is wrong (say: the new cygwin1.dll is not properly in function). Afterwards, since the warning is displayed only once, the warning is not displayed anymore, so the 'echo ...' is not a nuisance in .cshrc. The fact that the default is/was ON is important because otherwise the CYGWIN variable would have to be set somewhere (and before the 1st cygwin process). Currently i don't see how to replace this "feature". Any ideas? To be precise, the exact command that i use (in .cshrc) is echo \\ /nonexistent* |& head --lines=-6 in order to show a single line (a single line is enough for a visual indication) Regards, Denis Excoffier. -- 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
