pywin32

2021-11-24 Thread Dennis Putnam
Does anyone know the status of the port of pywin32 to cygwin. It appears like the project was nearly done 2 years ago but still is not available. TIA. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com

bat File to Launch Remote X11 Application

2021-11-22 Thread Dennis Putnam
I have a remote X application on a Linux system that I want to launch with a Windows bat file. My main problem is how to determine if Cygwin/X is running and if not launch it. Once verified I think all I need to do is use SSH -Y with the command that starts the X application. Can someone help?

I've just installed X11 and I think all the necessary pieces to run a remote X11 terminal. When I run 'xlaunch' I ask to run a remote program on my Linux host, specifically xterm. When the xterm window opens there is no command line prompt just the blank xterm screen. What am I missing? TIA.

ShellShock and Latest Version Problem

According to the cygwin web site the latest version that contains the shellshock patch is 1.7.32. I ran setup-x86_64.exe to get the latest patches but I wind up with version 1.7.16 and nothing later is found. My cygwin test indicates it is still vulnerable. How do I get 1.7.32 if not through setup?
