Trouble is, that option results in a 1Mb download (I think all it does
is download setup.exe).
My other d:\temp\cygwin directory (left over after a real install), is
over 200Mb, so I'm very confused about what's going on.

In case anyone else is ever stuck trying to figure this out, the answer
is to RTFM.
It turns out that in perl5.8.? you need to add a call to:
PERL_SYS_INIT3(&argc,&argv,&env)
before you do anything else with perl. This is documented in the Perl
embed man page.

Does Cygwin's cvs ignore your PATH setting, and directly use the Windows
rsh.exe? Behaviour of /usr/bin/cvs seems to indicate it may be so.
I can't rename rsh.exe to test this since XP "repairs" rsh.exe.

Interesting. Changing CVS_RSH from /bin/ssh to /usr/bin/rsh does
indeed fix the problem. Thanks, Bill.
All the problems occur if you use Cygwin's ssh instead of rsh
(strace stopping, read failing, cvs response of ok\r).

I have been trying to get an alias to work.
I start my bash shell from cygwin.bat with the following command:
bash --login -i -c 'rxvt -geometry 80x29 -sb -sl 1 -bg Black -f
inition in
/usr/lib/mingw/libminwex.a), but something tells me that linking a MinGW
runtime library into an otherwise-Cygwin program will cause more
problems than it'll solve.
Any ideas as to what I can do to solve this? Has anyone else
successfully built a Cygwin NumPy?
Thanks for all the h
I would welcome a short sentence describing what they actually are!

actually know the system call used to determine the filesystem type.

Aren't TODO lists wonderful? :-)

orm that test? It seems good to me.
I'm working my way towards a shell script that installs or upgrades
Cygwin on a machine that may or may not have Cygwin installed, and do
all our local post-install stuff (which is a lot of stuff), and also
test that at least the major packag
use it?
Anyway, I'm sharing the updated script (appended below), in case it's of
use to others. Perhaps it should really be called cygmd5chk
BTW, the reason for creating two files is because I believe cmd.exe is
so dumb it has no way to distinguish between an empty file and one
that's
You'll see
that the interactive shell is PID 3540, but since the /usr/bin/sh
script's parent PID is 3540, somehow it started a shell that wasn't in
$PATH, instead of one that was!

/", ("cygpath /" surely must use the mount info?), so I trust this
is equivalent - and simpler for a script!
As I mentioned, when I performed the experiment on a PC with Cygwin not
installed, the output from "cygpath -w /" consisted of just a single
backslash, which is an

come into it.

this if $HOME was created by Cygwin "mkdir" instead of
by Windows Explorer, due to some mysterious access permissions problem.
BTW, I use .profile because it's usable regardless of what (Bourne-like)
shell you use.

interpreters, is quite large. Seems like an obvious long-standing
