Thanks Christopher, sorry about that. You're right, it does pass on the environment now.

Does anyone have Tix built under this latest version? Sadly our TCL/ TK code still uses Tix - when compiling 8.4.0 I get:
tclPort.h : No such file or directory

Thanks, Steve.

Hi, upon seeing
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/msg00090.html

I downloaded the latest complete stable cygwin, after changing the tcl version to the updated version. I then downloaded the latest snapshot of cygwin1.dll and installed that (http://cygwin.com/ snapshots/cygwin1-20060319.dll.bz2).

The problem has not been fixed...did I not get the installation correct?

export F=1
>tclsh
puts [ exec sh -c "echo $F" ]
 can't read "F": no such variable

Thanks.
