Thanks for asking. Cygwin is under the GPL. Aspell is under the LGPL. Both are compliant with OSD. and I have put up an unmodified version of the cygwin dll. (actually, I simply "cut and pasted" cygwin1.dll from my own cygwin install.) That meas, it is sufficient for me to point out that cygwin is covered by GPL, and point to the cygwin's web site for sources - GPL - 3 (c). Please tell me if I am wrong. Thanks, Mahesh T Pai. _______________________________________________ Aspell-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/aspell-user
