In cygwin setup.exe you may want to click on Default next to All to select
all packages for install. This way you will not miss gcc, make etc. and
other good programs that are not selected by a Default installation.

P.S. To install O'caml you might still need to manually install some
package

I see there was some discussion about this before.
But still I *personally* would prefer if Pierre A. Humblet's Ispell port
would be part of cygwin distribution too as his ispell is much faster than
current aspell (at least for english). I tried to use aspell it just makes me
mad, it's so extreme
Something like this should do it:
1. add in cygwin.bat (or a copy of it), before bash command:
set __TYTLE__=%~1
2. in your .bash_profile add:
if [ "$__TYTLE__" ]; then
PS1="\[\033]0;\$__TYTLE__\007"'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$ '
fi
3. Create o shortcut with something like this

It's quite trivial to port it,

WhizzyTeX is an (X)Emacs minor-mode for
Last line of the script reads:
xdvi.bin $NAMEOPT ${1+"$@"}
Should be:
exec xdvi.bin $NAMEOPT ${1+"$@"}
so that SIGNALS are sent to xdvi.bin and not xdvi script.
Whizzytex for example, needs to send SIGUSR1 to xdvi.bin
to ask it to reread the dvi file.

Forgive my ignorance just wondering what does PERROR has to do with
st_ctime and st_mtime. You mean when you redirect stderr to a file?

Looking at the headers for a message I sent recently (id 89248) I see that
my email address was not mutilated in the Received: field. If one uses
SBC Yahoo's smtp server he has his email address as username.
If this is a very isolated incident then maybe nobody should bother.

Under my 'CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.7(0.109/3/2) i686' doing for example:
setsid ls -R /
would still block the console window (mostly for as long as ls runs).
IMO by redirecting only stdin to /dev/null one gets a setsid functionality
closer to
