I have no idea if this is useful to those debugging this. If no, I apologise for the post. On windows, my user name is 'Cliff Stanford' with the space. I was seeing these hangs until I put in a symlink for my home directory and added a line to /etc/passwd with a user of "cli

Re: Why I can't type backslash under bash.

nd Unix, then maybe you haven't realised that backslash is an escape character and must be doubled in bash commands (as in C strings). Or maybe you have problems with your character set and keyboard mapping. We can only guess! -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#

Re: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)

l hard disk, you should run scandisk on it (right-click the drive; select properties, then error-checking under tools). Since you may have a data error anywhere on the disk you should select "scan for bad sectors" [These are NT instructions; 9x/2k/XP may be subtly different.] In all probabi

of the source tarball (which you can get using setup.exe) as there are in all likelihood Cygwin-specific patches which are not present in the mainline GNU sources. So, take a look at http://cygwin.com/problems.html and send in the required details so we can help track down your problem. -- Cliff

Re: Problem with a cygwin App - Broken on a pristine system until I install cygwin, cygwin1.dll doesn't seem to be enough

th anywhere (eg /tmp/...) this would not be found, and if your app is dependent on the text/binary mount switches it would behave differently. A quick check would be to temporarily rename your Cygnus Solutions registry keys (in HKLM/Software and HKCU/Software), or else use mount to exper

Re: Problem with a cygwin App - Broken on a pristine system until I install cygwin, cygwin1.dll doesn't seem to be enough

lso, it's not unlikely (I understand, and hope) that the mount point info will one day be moved out of the registry. But I still stand by my original suggestion, for experts only, to determine if it is a registry setting added or changed by the installation of Cygwin which was causing the problem. -

Re: Cannot create executables / can't find libz.dll

.a - that is *not* the same thing at all as libz.dll. I think libz.dll should be part of the Cygwin xfree installation, and this is the wrong list for xfree queries. -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documen

ugly. Much simpler than that: test -e foo. && echo found foo. The trailing dot excludes the .exe magic and is ignored on translation to windows filename. -- Cliff -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html
