Shun fcntl, but when someone discards their /bin/mail that uses it: "stupid". And again, I'm not asking for nmh to be "stupid". I am all for sensible defaults. If someone wants to choose a different locking scheme for whatever reason, it doesn't bother me. If they can do it at runtime, even better. > How about submitting a patch set Your order has no effect on my priorities. > that makes nmh work reasonably under > cygwin. I'm not the only person who would rejoice. As a matter of fact, I have fixed some things. The build is reasonably clean. inc and folder operations seem to work. whatnow doesn't, maybe because of (v)fork. post doesn't, but I haven't looked at it even to determine if it's a nmh problem.
