No, there's no way to do this using existing cygwin tools. You could build a cross-compiler to do this. It's a complicated task, though. It would require regenerating a new version of gcc and bringing over all of the libraries for linux to your PC. If you do a google search for "cross compiler" you'll be off to a good start if you want to try this. The crossgcc at sources.redhat.com mailing list is also designed for dealing with cross compilers. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
