This is what I've been doing ;) But it gets annoying having to rebuild the rxvt source - especially when for some reason it doesnt build OOT(cygwin-patched)B - or patch the binary myself whenever there's a new release, especially when its a patch that most users would enjoy (although it may bloat the binary by an extra 1k - so use upx :P). Just a convenience thing really ;) Cheers, Dean Scarff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
