Sure. I understand what you are doing. It usually only takes me a couple of tries to "get it". I'm specifically trying not to do the "TRUE" thing, though, since AFAICT it isn't always appropriate. For the record, I really appreciate your tracking this down. I finally understand the issues here. These issues have been around for a long time and the problems that you uncovered are probably responsible for some longstanding cygwin strangeness. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
