OSS is implemented in cygwin and it works. 19.20210406-2 switches it backend to OSS rather than win32apis. Are there any reason to stick to MME backend? -- Takashi Yano <takashi.y...@nifty.ne.jp> -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
