Hi,
I'm new to this list. I read the FAQ but I couldn't find an answer
nor a fix for my problem. I just installed the latest cygwin
If you do this, remember that it shouldn't be limited to FAT file systems.
Even though one's version of Windows may be capable of making hard links,
one may not have the permission level (Administrator) to do so.
But I'm not sure that I see the point of emulating hard links. It seems to
me that

Hi Y'all
Just did my daily update (followed by PC reset). When I run a new
Dos-Window shell I get the following message

I don't use LilyPond so how do

This has burned me often enough that I've made a little shell

A hard link is made to a file on disk, whereas a symbolic link is made to
a directory entry. Once a hard link is made, it's indistinguishable from
the original file. Essentially, *each* directory entry is a hard link to
the contents of the corresponding file, and the link count of any hard
link
One obvious thing hard links allow is a way to have the same file with
different permissions. With a symbolic link you need both access
permissions for the symbolic link and actual file. i.e.
ln -s /tmp/foo.exe /home/bcr/foo.exe
chmod ugo-x /tmp/foo.exe
chmod ugo+x /home/bcr/foo.exe
With
Replying to myself -- bad habits die hard... Just to dot all the is and
cross all the ts.
One thing I forgot to mention is how to handle link counts. Those could
be stored in, for example, the NTEA attributes file for the original (or
the corresponding special) filename. I don't see anything

My work pc is set up so that the c drive is too small for anything useful
and all applications go on the d drive. The standard build of the pc is set
up with Cygwin already installed. My issue is that the standard build
doesn't have some components I need.
However, setup.exe always installs

Personally I would perfer a system where the setup program simply

They have some code which uses $0 to check the name of the script being
run and think zsh doesn't set $0 correctly for shell scripts,
Hmmm. I forgot one other advantage of symbolic links. They are independent
of the locations of each other. i.e.
touch /tmp/foo.txt
ln /tmp/foo.txt /home/bcr/foo.txt
mkdir /home/bcr/tmp
mv /tmp/foo.txt /home/bcr/tmp/foo.txt
Both versions of foo.txt are still valid, even though they
