Strange symlink and mv interaction

>From inside of ~/src/myprojects I did a: mv -- --1.2 ~/tla--escapes--1.2 where "--1.2" was a directory in ~/src/myprojects. This did not move ~/src/myprojects/--1.2 to ~/src/tla--escapes--1.2. What it did do was move it to /cygdrive/c/tla--escapes--1.2. Here are the pertinent paths:

Patch and directions for compiling GNU screen 3.9.15 on Cygwin

I created a patch for GNU screen 3.9.15 that will allow it to be compiled and installed on Cygwin. The patch is attached below, the basic build and install procedure is: $ tar xzf {tar-path}/screen-3.9.15.tar.gz $ cd screen-3.9.15 $ patch -p1 -s <{patch-path}/screen-3.9.15

Debugging cygwin1.dll startup

I have made some local changes to the source for cygwin1.dll and would like to debug it, as the first Cygwin process, bash, begins. I know about using a gdb-startup.cmd setup for JIT debugging applications, but this does not seem to work for debugging Cygwin prior to reaching a bash prompt. Is th

Cygwin Network Programming Problem

I have taken what looks to be a common network programming sample from the Internet and compiled it on Cygwin. Upon reaching 'accept' for the second time I receive the following output: accept: No children I have spent a few days perusing the Net and have found no solution to this proble

RXVT Font Question

The Windows 2000 console can use two different fonts. The one is "Lucida Console". The other is "Terminal". Is it possible to use "Terminal" in say the 8x12 size with rxvt? I think it does the right thing with box characters and while it is not as smooth has a heavier weight and is easier on my e

I am trying to build the Linux UML modeler with cygwin. Everything works until I link. Libtool tries adding -ldl to the g++ linking call. If I enter g++ command by hand without the -ldl everything is fine, except I get a number of C++ related linking errors. My command line is: g++ -Wl,--enable
