The original poster, to which my post was a reply, claimed to have searched for the answer in the newsgroups and not found anything. Silly me for taking him at his word.

This reply was far more helpful than the previous. That reply was a fish. The previous reply was teaching you to fish. If you had bothered to do your elementary background research, you would already have seen all those scripts, and read the announcements. Similarly, if after being told that it was all over the archives, you had bothered to go and search and browse those archives, you would have found those scripts. If your immediate reaction to any problem is to sit there helplessly until someone spoon-feeds you the answer, you have only yourself to blame for your total lack of action. Nobody else can move your own muscles for you. It is, of course, entirely up to you, whether you want to be a helpless victim of circumstance, or take some degree of responsibility for your life and what happens in it. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/ -- 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/
