Having another go at building Sage on Cygwin, I get, somewhere very near the end of building Maxima spkg, the following:

The parameter 'move-here' does not seem to be documented anywhere... Is it due to usual Cygwin/windows misnaming (I see in src/binary-ecl/ file maxima.exe) ? -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
