When I read the documentation for a framework, I almost always go directly to the PDF, if it's available. The PDF doesn't say anything about this being deprecated. I wouldn't have used it if it had. If I'm interpreting the modification date on the file properly, this PDF hasn't been regenerated in 5 years. Looking at this also made me realize a silly mistake I was making, in that I was setting CYGWIN in my .bashrc, not in my system env vars. I fixed that, and also removed "check_case", but it had no obvious effect. > On 6/5/2009 3:44 PM, David Karr wrote: > >> Ok, I've done some searching, but I can't figure out how to get this > >> package.
