Thanks, Mark, that worked! I assumed that -O coff would "do the right thing" by itself. I did not realize that "format" and "target" were independent. I finally read somewhere that by default, windres picks the target that is listed first when getting help via "-h". In my case that was pe-x86-64, which was wrong for what I wanted to do. - Jim -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <jjreis...@alum.mit.edu>, http://www.ad1c.us -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
