The main reason for this mailing on this list is not only am I new to 
CyGwin but also I am am completely unfamiliar with  Cygwin's originating 
platform (which I have been led to believe is Linux). I hoped that You 
who know could send me to places that were more relavent to Cygwin than 
to Linux.
I appologize for the unclarity of my request.
But I'm still in the same boat.

I want to learn to use Cygwin to it's fullest.

Where can I get the "How To's" and "What Are's" of Cygwin??

I have a basic understanding of C and come from the Mainframe & Windows 
environments. I'm not ready to jump straight into Linux/Unix so I see a 
great chance to learn using Cygwin.

Where should someone who doesn't understand the difference between gcc 
and g++ go to learn what they've got?
Where should I have gone to find out about using the & when issuing a 
bash command?
Basics & beginnings .......

How's about a Newbies mailing list? Where those of us who have NO CLUE 
can go to learn.

I'm here I'm staying I'm learning .... Hopefully someday I'll even be 
able to help port a few things to cygwin

Thanks for your time
Thanks for your product

Mike
