curiously, it actually worked once a little while ago, i was able to execute commands and everything, and now is back to not responding, it just opens a blank command prompt window, the $ prompt doesn't appear, and it's unresponsive.
What I mean by the batch file is the shortcut in the root directory or the Start menu that opens the program. it does appear in task manager, and reports to be running fine. now i think it's a problem with my security, as my security programs keep prompting me as to whether i want to let certain scripts run when i start the program, even though i told them to ignore cygwin and all files in that area. also, when i open it from command prompt, a green text marker appears that moves around with the mouse, and typing no longer works. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
