I didn't mean to disappoint, but I work on Cygwin only at work. I don't currently have the free time or resources at home to do it. As such, I have to work only on the problems that face our products. We only needed that functionality because of missing vfork behavior. We decided to use spawn and a helper executable to solve the problem instead of going outside the Cygwin box with CreateProcess. Occasionally, I try to use free work time (lunch, after hours, etc.) to do otherwise. But lately that's been in very short supply (as in taken up by work itself). :-(. -- Brian Ford Lead Realtime Software Engineer VITAL - Visual Simulation Systems FlightSafety International the best safety device in any aircraft is a well-trained pilot... -- 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/
