Hmm could you please whare with us what isn't 'robust' about the Cygwin file system. It is slow compared to the Linux or Native Win32 file system in that it has to go thru an extra translation layer inorder to get Unix behaviour under Win32 but ..... implying that Cygwin file operayions are not robust borders on pure fud Cheers Norman _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
