Actually, both Corinna and I have 64 bit platforms these days (mine was donated by an anonymous benefactor. I still can't get over that). We have a workaround for previous problems in current versions of cygwin so, AFAIK, Cygwin should work on 64 bit windows: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/2004-09/msg00002.html I'll change the main web page if/when 64 bit windows goes out of beta. Or is it there already? cgf -- 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/
