I ran links from cmd, started to download a file in the background and
ran an O/S shell. Later, when I could see that the download was long
finished, I exited the O/S shell and, instead of returning to links,
the whole console box disappeared, leaving the ghost of links and the
cmd session which ha
Quite a few Cygwin programs (and programs developed using Cygwin
compilers) can be run without Cygwin. Almost always one needs
Cygwin1.dll in one's path and perhaps some other DLL's.
Some people use a lot of different computers not theirs (e.g.
repairmen, consultants) and carry around a memory sti
pdftotext.exe, part of the XPDF package, can be recompiled with a /*
comment */ cut around the permission-to-copy/print code.
Probably the other programs will also work but since the PDF files

the text to the Securities and Ex
The PDF's in question are part of pump and dump spam via botnets so I
see no legal or ethical reason to respect any expressed desire of the
author as to how they may be used.
I googled that XPDF didn't respect the no copy/no print flags in PDF's
but the version that I got with Cygwin does and give
If you have perl and gcc installed, get the source for whois (I got
the tar ball from ftp.debian.org which is likely the same as the
Cygwin version), then replace ip_del_list with
http://members.verizon.net/jmrubin/ip_del_list and make.
The file looks a bit weird with Cygwin text-only browsers b
The Cygwin whois may well be the latest GNU version of whois but there
is at least one IP range about which it doesn't know. IMHO, the data
should be in a separate text (user editable) file from the program. Of
course, this isn't all THAT important with open source.
C:\cygwin\bin>whois 116.199.133
nc (netcat, a Swiss army knife network client) and nc (a client for
transmitting commands to the X11 editor nedit) can cause a conflict if
both the nc and nedit packages of Cygwin are installed.
For example, my mail checking cmd.exe script
C:\cygwin\bin\echo -e user jmrubin\npass mypassword\nlist

I hope the date is the most relevant part of this posting.

I notice that Python just exits when I call it from cmd.exe in XPSP2
but it works correctly if I call it from bash. Cygwin is in my path.
I tried gcc'ing a simple program which prints argv[0] and I didn't see
any difference in what it prints out when I call it from cmd.exe and

I decided to clean up my cygwin setup and got rid of some things and
reinstalled stuff. I found out that the current versions of two of the
text-only browsers, links and w3m, won't run unless you have
openssl097 which is, unless you uncheck the hide box, invisible in
setup.

This is probably more a question about the original *nix progie than
the Cygwin port.
There is a new IP registry, whois.afrinic.net which covers ... Africa.
Right now, if you enter an African IP into Cygwin whois, you get a
RIPE.NET or ARIN.NET entry which may give a bit of info (and probably

When I installed the new pcre package (from installationdir\setup.exe)
it deleted
c:\cygwin\bin\cygpcre.dll
and created c:\cygwin\usr\bin\cygpcre-0.dll
Less would no longer work for lack of cygpcre.dll
Copying c:\cygwin\usr\bin\cygpcre-0.dll to the old address
c:\cygwin\bin\cygpcre.dll

I have the same problem with several Cygwin programs including wget
and unzip. The "access denied" survives a reboot.
So it seems that Cygwin is creating files with this problem. I have
only one user with, of course, administrative rights.
