Also, as per Larry Hall, it hurls on linux, solaris and I didn't try

I get the same result if the commands are in a script (See below)

This suggests to me that it is executing that read in a subshell that

"Thank you" to everyone who responded my question. It gives me a

Hi,
Would someone please tell me what file(s) I would have to take with
me (eg. on a disk) to someone else's machine, both running windows XP,
whereby I could get setup to download the same cygwin components that
are on my machine?
Thank you.

Hi People,
Find does not seem able to search the /cygdrive/c directory.
example:
$ find /cygdrive/c -iname \*Telus\* -print

Hi,
Does cygwin have a program called "script". It is a program
which records terminal traffic in a file.
If so what would I select in setup to get it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Correct me if I'm wrong but it is my understanding that a signal,
specifically SIGALRM, should free a blocked read request and,
for example, getchar() or read(), should return an EINTR error.
(viz. Interrupted system call)
This happens on Solaris, sun 4, Sgi and AIX machines but apparently
