Ahhh, found it. I get the same thing Alex does if I change my startup for Cygwin. Force of habit from Unix machine I like to see the login prompt when I start Cygwin. So I have my cygwin.bat set to use the login program as shown here: start "bash Shell" CMD /c bin\login.exe in which case I get the results I posted from mythread_simple and the hang. If I however change my cygwin.bat to use the standard Cygwin.bat which goes directly to a bash prompt as in this format: bash --login -i then I get the same results as Alex for mythread_simple. The interesting thing here is that in version of cygwin.bat I also use this line: start "Using rxvt/bash" CMD /c bin\rxvt -geometry 90x30 -fg grey -bg midnightblue -cr red -sr -sl 2000 -fn "Lucida Console-12" -tn rxvt -e /usr/bin/login to invoke and rxvt. In this case ( I just discovered while playing with this) the mythread_simple program works here as well - even though I am going through the login program. So question - is this a result of using the Start command or the fact I am using the start command with the login program. Any ideas. bk -- 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/
