The package list never showed the vertical scrollbar. In the current version the mouse wheel didn't work either (another patch coming), so I couldn't scroll the list at all. I tracked this down now to a font issue. Turns out that the main window of the PropertySheet wizard uses the font alias MS Shell Dlg as its base font (as seen in the DLGTEMPLATE passed to PSCB_PRECREATE). The individual pages use the font alias MS Sans Serif as set in the resource file. With larger screen resolutions, this results in widely different ideas about the size of the dialog units that are used to measure dialogs and controls. The result is that the vertical scrollbar of the list was outside of the clipping region that the main window had set up. The simplest fix was to change the font in the resource file (patch attached). This is certainly better than the current situation, but I am not sure this is the best solution, as I am not sure that it is documented and garanteed that the wizard will use this specific font alias. Ideally we want either set the font for the main window to MS Sans Serif at an apropriate time (i.e. before dialog units are converted to pixel units), or in some other way synchronize the font for the individual sheets with the main window at runtime. I have not found a simple way to do this yet, though. If there is interest I can at least provide the code that I used to check the font that the main window is using and to write that to the log file. so long, benny 2003-05-19 Benjamin Riefenstahl [EMAIL PROTECTED] * res.rc (all dialogs): Change font from MS Sans Serif to MS Shell Dlg.

E.g. what happens if the next module comes and uses the same perllocal.pod.postinstall_append file? Shouldn't it be entirely included in the postinstall script? How to get this working without creating the perllocal.pod.postinstall_append file manually? What I'm really looking for is something like ActiveStates PPM, maybe we should port this at first and then use the PPM way (with .ppd files), so everyone could easily offer Perl packages at his own website.

Are you looking at the hook DLL? I've been swamped with other things so haven't done more than look at the sample code Harold did for that Morse beeper. One other minor thing I think might be simple to do is replace the SW diX cursor with the standard Windoze cursor: All the Xbitmap-WinIcon code can be used almost directly, and this'll reduce CPU load when moving the mouse over an active window. -Earle F.

It happens with the original installer I had (unsure of version) and, as Larry suggested, it happens even with the very latest dev snapshot 2.358. http://rogue.dnsalias.com:1984/cygwin-ate-my-desktop.gif http://rogue.dnsalias.com:1984/after-death.gif (I apologize if the links are broken... just set up server haven't had the chance to test from outside firewall yet... if they are broken, please let me know and I'll try to make other accomodations) As you can see from the screenshots, memory just rises higher and higher until it eats all physical + virtual memory. The first pic is the last screenshot I was able to obtain before it started paging like crazy. The graph rose steadily until I ran out of pagefile space and window decided to increase it. At this point, I killed the process. Interestingly, as Dan originally pointed out, the setup.exe process only reports a small fraction of this alloctation (averaged around 12,000k for the task of installing libxml2) --dave - Original Message - From: Larry Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 16, 2003 9:02 AM Subject: Re: Memleak Apparently Attributable to Cygwin Setup [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have experienced this as well.

Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] New packages: docbook-xml42, docbook-xsl, xmlto
Hi Marcel, thank you for making these packages available directly via Cygwin setup. I gave xmlto a couple of runs, and it does its job as expected. Unfortunately, I can not use xmlto currently without switching off validation, because it doesn't allow postvalidating my source after evaluating the xincludes first. But I will contact Tim about this. Perhaps he is willing to include another command line switch in one of the next releases. Is there a reason why you sticked with the v1.60.1 XSL stylesheets and didn't use the v1.61.2 ones? Very nice, Patrick docbook-xml42 = docbook-xml42 package contains Docbook XML DTD version 4.2 as published by OASIS. Current version of the package is docbook-xml42-4.2-1. docbook-xsl === docbook-xsl package contains XSL stylesheets for the DocBook XML DTD created by Norman Walsh and others. Current version of the package is docbook-xsl-1.60.1-1. xmlto = xmlto is a front-end to the DocBook XML toolchain written by Tim Waugh. xmlto converts XML files to various formats using XSL stylesheets.

Memleak Apparently Attributable to Cygwin Setup
I've tried the extreme patience suggestion. After 2 hours of installing, Setup was still on a2ps, and total memory usage had reached ~2GB, although setup.exe was only admitting to being responsible for ~14MB of it. I think we can conclude that this hasn't worked. Next, I'll give the latest sparkly version of Setup suggestion a try. One for Dave, who seems to be experiencing exactly the same problem: did this first arise just after installing Microsoft's cumulative patch for IE6 service pack 1?

Agenda 2010: Ja / Nein / Weiss nich'
Das kulturelle Klima in Deutschland ist massen-egozentrisch und -kohärent, mit gleichen Symptomen. Sowohl in der Öffentlichkeit wie auch privat. Diese Symptome sind 'überzogene Gruppenzugehörigkeit' 'überzogene Individualität': offensichtlich gegenläufige Zustandsbeschreibungen. TV Medien regen zu Diskussionen an, während gleichzeitig von den realen Problemen abgelenkt werden. (klassische TV-Propaganda in neuzeitlichem Gewand). Reale Probleme sind hier mehr psychosomatisch verankert: Angst, Angstbewältigung, Angstschöpfung (z.B. am Arbeitsplatz). Diese fundamentalen Probleme führen vornehmlich zu irreversiblen Realitätskonflikten Depressionen. Das Opfer ist in der Regel diesen Prozessen hilflos ausgeliefert, da sie unterbewusst ablaufen. Die betreffende Person die hier nicht in grösseren alt- oder neo-traditionellen Verbänden lebt, wird so schnell zu einer fehlfunktionierenden aber angepassten marionettenhaften Figur, die einer atheistisch-fundamentalistischen Herrschaftsform keinen Widerstand bietet/bieten wird. Diese 'atheistisch-fundamentalistische' Herrschaftsform in farbenfroher Aufmachung ist nicht Gegenstand politischer Diskussionen oder der Politik selbst, sondern sie ist ein Produkt aus jahrzehntelanger Medienarbeit; journalistische Fehlarbeit, Fehlaufbereitung und Fehl-Bildung in Deutschland wie auch anderswo. Statt mündige Bürger hervorzubringen, ist es geschehen, Menschen in Marionetten zu verwandeln, deren Weltbild abhängig ist von bürokratisierten Meinungs-Institutionen. Persönlich muß ich mich ernsthaft fragen, womit bestimmte Organisationen, wie zum Beispiel der BND so ihre Zeit vergeuden !! Politik/Medien: Wichtige Eckpunkte werden in Frage gestellt und es wird zu zeitverschwenderischen Diskussionen angeregt. Oder es werden Probleme produziert, um von Schwerpunkten abzulenken. Beispielsweise wird neuerdings die Existenz von Gewerkschaften geradezu in Frage gestellt, während gleichzeitig Preiserhöhung seit der Euro-Wende kaum ein Thema ist. Gewinner sind auschließlich gewisse Groß- und Einzelhändler. Offensichtlich wird hier der Verbraucher VERARSCHT. Mental materiell, so scheint es, wird hier eine Massensklaverei eingeführt; so still und so leise, daß niemand etwas merkt !? Ungerechtfertigt im Sinne global-marktwirtschaftlicher Überlegungen. Es scheint, gewisse Kräfte in Politik und Wirtschaft lassen es zu, dass Teile Europas (ganz Europa ?) im Gleichtakt mit Schwellenländern schwingt (Afrika ?, Asien ?). Und das absolut missachtungsvoll bezüglich sozialer/kultureller/moralischer Gewinne. So ist auch da Schlagwort Agenda2010 mehr ein Slogan, der eher was mit Erpressung von mündigen Bürgern zu tun hat und uns von Funktionären des Zeitgeistes zur Diskussion angeboten wird. Individuelle Entscheidungsträger werden hierbei fortschreitend bereitwillig ersetzt und getragen durch massenhypnotisierte Bediener einer frühkapitalistisch anmutenden Mental-Effektiv-Maschinerie.

Corinna Vinschen [EMAIL PROTECTED] ygwin.com To Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc in.com Subject [ANNOUNCEMENT] Testversion 17.06.2003 17:21 uploaded: bash-2.05b-10 Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've added a testversion of bash to the Cygwin distro, 2.05b-10. This version contains the patches from http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg00446.html which addresses the slowness of bash in reading scripts. This could result in problems with scripts on textmode mounts, therefore this is flagged as testversion. Please give it a try, especially if you're using textmode mounts. If nobody complains about problems which result from that patch within, say, two or three weeks, I'll make this the standard version of bash.

Re: libiconv package must be recompiled
Sam Steingold wrote: I'm sorry, but while I have no objection to rebuilding the package per se, I need more than stir in this magic powder and it works! before I'm entirely comfortable with this. as http://article.gmane.org/gmane.lisp.clisp.general/6767 explains, the apparent problem is that EILSEQ was conflated with ENOENT. I.e., both were defined to be the same number, which caused CLISP to barf on innocuous errors. Ok, I misunderstood the original report -- I thought the problem was *solely* a cygwin kernel error. But, because EILSEQ/ENOENT are #defines, even after cygwin gets fixed, the compiled libiconv stays broken. libiconv was returning an EILSEQ error -- but because cygwin *at the time libiconv was compiled* defined EILSEQ == ENOENT, clisp was getting confused. So by recompiling libiconv against a newer cygwin that correctly defines EILSEQ, libiconv will return the correct error code and clisp will stop being confused. Got it. Look for a new release of libiconv soon. --Chuck -- 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/

Re: Cygwin Net - Compilation
Deepa, With the flags it's given, the only two directories that umsgcc will search for include files are /home/Administrator/uClinux-dist/linux-2.4.x/include/ and ../include (which resolves to /home/Administrator/uClinux-dist/include, looking at the current directory).

RE: CYGWIN NTsec permissions over inet - cannot see SMB drives with SSH login
Jason, If you have seen my messages on the Cygwin list, you should have noticed that the Reply-To field on all of them is set to the Cygwin list. In fact, the Cygwin list is the preferred method for getting Cygwin help and information, as opposed to sending e-mail to individual contributors. This gives you access to a much larger amount of expertise than any one person can provide, as well as storing both the questions and the answers in the archives. Thus, I've redirected this reply to the list, and set the Reply-To appropriately. As for your ssh problem, it's a question of whether the authentication token created by the ssh daemon will be trusted by the remote shares. AFAIK, the one condition that has to hold for this is that the token should contain the password (thus, no passwordless authentication). Once you have such a token, you may be able to net use the share (with a password, of course). On the other hand, IIUC, sshd will not authenticate with the domain controller, so the token you get upon login might not be enough in any case. The only thing I can add is: make sure your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files are up to date before you try this.

Question about building vim 6.2-1 on cygwin (for Corinna)
Hello, I am trying to build vim 6.2-1 on cygwin with the perl support enabled. What configure options do I need to match the build that you produced for that release? I seem to be having problems with the terminal. When I run your build(as installed using the cygwin setup.exe), syntax highlighting works just fine. But when I run my build (configured with: configure --enable-perlinterp --enable-gui=no), the terminal version of vim doesn't highlight syntax correctly. The only color that comes through is teal, and it uses bold and underlined fonts for keywords (sort of like vim does on a terminal that doesn't support color). Am I missing some configuration options, or perhaps some of the libraries I need to make this work?

Re: Outwit -- UNIX-style utilities for Windows
Lee D. Rothstein wrote: Professor Spinnellis, First, thank you for the nice little package of utilities -- Outwit (http://www.dmst.aueb.gr/dds/sw/outwit) -- that allow for the integration of scripts with Windows applications. I'm not sure why this was copied to the cygwin list; it reads like a personal email. However, many of the capabilities you list are already available from standard cygwin packages. The 'cygutils' package provides putclip/getclip, a stdio interface to the windows clipboard (there's also /dev/clipboard, but that's another story). Upcoming (current?) cygwin kernels provide direct access to the registry via /proc/registry(?). Also, cygwin has LONG shipped with 'regtool' which allows registry manipulation. -- Chuck -- 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/

Download from internet = 1Mb?!
We're happily mirroring (internally on our network), one of the public mirror sites, for local installs. It's working well. We do a nightly rsync. The mirror is 1.2Gb, and I wanted to just write a copy of the install set to take home. So my idea was to choose download from internet, and burn that. Trouble is, that option results in a 1Mb download (I think all it does is download setup.exe). My other d:\temp\cygwin directory (left over after a real install), is over 200Mb, so I'm very confused about what's going on. luke -- 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/

Sanjay,
The default .bashrc has a commented out function settitle(). Just
uncomment that line, restart bash, and you'll be able to run settitle
Your Title (no quotes necessary). The function works for the console
window, xterm, and rxvt.
If your .bashrc doesn't have that function, look in
/etc/skel/.bashrc, or search this list for settitle. Note the
control characters.

Hi Igor,
I added this line in my .bashrc
function settitle() { echo -n ^[]2;[EMAIL PROTECTED];[EMAIL PROTECTED]; }
now when I write settitle sanjay on my $ , it does not change my title ..
this is what happens
[~]$ settitle sanjay

what is it that I am missing ?

mutt/exim DNS problems?
I'm using Cygwin under XP Professional on an IBM Thinkpad, connected wireless to an SMC router, using IBM Access Connections to set up my computer on a DHCP private 198 address to receive DHCP gateway and DNS info from ISPs that change when I change locations (on travel). I have no problems conecting anywhere on the Internet using Netscape and Iexplorer browsers, or even using Eudora to send Email. Under Cygwin, I can ssh login to various machines. However, using mutt (using exim) I keep getting Network is unreachable??? mutt/exim worked fine when I first set up my system, but now mutt/exim is failing? Any suggestions on settings I might test/try? Thanks.

Testversion uploaded: bash-2.05b-10
I've added a testversion of bash to the Cygwin distro, 2.05b-10. This version contains the patches from http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg00446.html which addresses the slowness of bash in reading scripts. This could result in problems with scripts on textmode mounts, therefore this is flagged as testversion. Please give it a try, especially if you're using textmode mounts. If nobody complains about problems which result from that patch within, say, two or three weeks, I'll make this the standard version of bash.
