Hi -

I replaces them. In my experience, the
cygwin prompt seems to be isolated from your
existing windows environment.

While your at it, you may want to look into

www.mingw.org

and it's prompt msys.

Aloha => Beau.

I've been thinking of jumping to Cygwin for a while.  Does anyone know how
it interacts with existing installations of ActivePerl and other stuff (vim,
gawk)?

Does it replace them with its own version, or does it figure out that they
already exist on your system?

Do you mean Cygwin?  It's a UNIX environment for windows.  Check out the
front page at www.cygwin.com.

I heard about Sygwin when reading the Re:IDE letter, and it is kinda funny,
but I downloaded it yesterday. I haven't used it yet, but I am wonder what
it is how it works and how I can use it to my advantage in this M$ world.
Thanks.
