Cygutils is a collection of useful(?) tools for the cygwin platform. This is a bugfix release and a content update.
[[ compiled using gcc-4.3.4-3 ]] CHANGES (from cygutils-1.4.4-1) ================================ * conv: no longer distribute as dos2unix, unix2dos, u2d, or d2u. Those programs now available from the separate dos2unix package. * ascii: by default, now only prints characters 0..127. Use new option --extended/-e for old behavior, printing characters 0..255. See this thread: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-04/msg00600.html * cygstart: Fix --reference. Allow relative paths (enables, e.g. 'cygstart calc'). Reported by Ken Hirsch. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg01101.html * cygdrop: Minor fixes (Christian Franke) * mkshortcut: Minor fixes (Jon TURNEY) * Updated licenses for all apps to GPLv3+ (with permission from all original contributors). TODO (call for patches): ================================ * Update lpr.cc, mkshortcut.c, readshortcut.c to use cygwin-1.7 cygwin_conv_path instead of deprecated cygwin_conv_to_win32_path. * Update (some?) utilities to handle unicode filenames, similar to IWAMURO Motonori's work on cygstart. Which utilities need this? mkshortcut and lpr, probably. Any others? -- Charles Wilson volunteer cygutils maintainer for cygwin ==================================================================== To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page.
