[Avail for test] csih-0.1.9-1

2009-03-28 Thread Charles Wilson
(Same version, for both cygwin-1.5 and 1.7) This release hopefully addresses several long-standing issues with csih: * correct csih_check_access behavior * suppress errors in _csih_setup * No longer restrict contents of CYGWIN variable (Corinna Vinschen) * New -f option for csih_select_privileged

Keybindings in rxvt running tcsh get overwritten during startup

2009-03-28 Thread Ishmael
I'm afraid I'm having some trouble getting my keybindings to work under tcsh running under rxvt. When I run them from the command line, they work fine, but when I put them in one of my dot files, which get sourced during startup, they don't work. Here's what I've got in a file I created (called .

Yep, separately installing the font-* packages with setup.exe solved my problem with the font sizes. I also haven't seen the no input problem since, but it was a sporadic issue to begin with, so I don't know if that fixed it as well. On Sat, Mar 28, 2009 at 1:10 PM, Alex Epshteyn wrote: > I real

Hi all, Has anyone had success compiling the gtk toolkit under cygwin using the Win32 backend? I am getting as far as building&installing glib, atk and cairo (the cairo tests run fine, too). After that, the pango configure script does pick up that it should build for "Cairo Win32" and it does say
