Your recommendation makes total sense. I will do it soon: not today, but soon. I am just a little nervous. I have been using 32-bit Cygwin for at least 15 years, and being without it throws me into a tizzy. (I barely know how to use WindowsExplorer.) Are there any gotchas I should know about? Please keep us up to date with your valuable scripting efforts. I have checked your script, emails and the followups into revision control, for my own purposes. I'll let you know how it goes. Maybe eventually we can get your work up on the Cygwin web site? --- Karl Botts, kdbo...@usa.net -- 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
