Do you > know which package contains the C functions manuals like what we have in > unix? In general, the answer to your question of 'which package contains this file?' is 'cygcheck -p regex'. For example, 'cygcheck -p fopen.[0-9]' shows that you are likely to find a man page for fopen in the cygwin-doc package, again something you can select from setup.exe. But be aware that cygwin does not have a complete set of man pages; it is a volunteer project, and not all the pages are as well maintained as Linux, which has more volunteers, or in a paid Unix solution, where you are getting value-added from the vendor. By the way, if you had followed these directions: > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html and included the output of 'cygcheck -svr' as a text attachment, we would know for sure which packages you had installed, or if you had other installation problems. Hence our admonitions to read the FAQ. People get tired of answering the same questions when the answer is already a click or two away on the website. -- Eric Blake -- 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/
