Sounds like you provide question and answer together there. Reini, could you email me a copy of the package source? I'd like to see what you've done. Are you aware that about 9 months ago, Win32.xs/Win32.pm were put into the core (and will no longer be part of libwin32 at some point), with some changes/additions? Also don't know if you saw I sent Gerrit a patch to automatically include Win32CORE functions, in the hopes that he would release 5.8.6 that way. For 5.8.7 I want to get win32/wince/cygwin all sharing the same source for those functions and the Win32 module. -- 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/
