I'm running cygwin on Windows 7 Pro with rakudo 2.3.0 and the most recent perl6 installed. cygcheck.out attached. Simple perl6 test scripts fail. As does command line option -v. Am I missing something? Is something broken? Transcript follows sig. TIA David 8<

Trouble Sending Printer Codes from Perl to Printer

I'm adapting a working linux program to cygwin. The process has been relatively painless except for this issue which has delayed me way past deadline. I need to output text and printer codes (which may include \000) from a perl program to a printer which may be on a parallel port or a USB port
