Ah, yes, I was supposed to get back to you on what I'd done to get things running... > I had a few problems where it is felt that cygwin should be updated > to handle the situations.

I downloaded and compiled them separately into each program that needs them. There was some talk, long ago, about bringing in "newlib", which apparently incorporates them...? > 2.

I've never seen it work on any system, in my years of playing monop. I started working on a system of saving just the necessary information and reading it back, but I haven't really implemented it yet. -- --Alfvaen(Web page: http://www.telusplanet.net/public/alfvaen/ ) Song In My Head--Elton John:The Last Song Current Book--Michelle West:Sea of Sorrows Stop in the name of all that does not suck!! -- 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/
