Finally got around to trying that one, but it broke the tkinfo (Tcl/Tk) script I use regularly. Some experimenting revealed that I had to add the following to make it work: mount -f -b -x "c:/cygwin/bin/wish84.exe" "/bin/wish84.exe" mount -f -b -x "c:/cygwin/bin/wish84.exe" "/usr/bin/wish84.exe" and presumably I'd also want: mount -f -b -x "c:/cygwin/bin/tclsh84.exe" "/bin/tclsh84.exe" mount -f -b -x "c:/cygwin/bin/tclsh84.exe" "/usr/bin/tclsh84.exe" The FAQ (http://www.cygwin.com/faq/faq_3.html) mentions using this idiom for strace and cygcheck, but not for Tcl/Tk. Perhaps these should be noted as well? gsw -- 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/
