This has NOTHING to do with Windows XP. you went a traditional route
to install from sources. a simple 'make uninstall' should suffice (in
all good theory... we know that theory != practice. All Else Fails,
use setup.exe to install it 'officially' and then run it again to
uninstall it 'officially' -- that is, if you didnt use PREFIX=(path
here) when you ran the Configure script.

Hi.  I've just recently installed cygwin and I'd like to ask a few questions

I've installed practically all the Cygwin packages but I'm frustrated by a

the host can't be found; I have to put in the fully-qualified host name:

  ping host.company.com

  
Make sure that the 'ping' that's being used is from /usr/bin (== /bin), 
and not from (for example) WINDOWS/System32


Do a 'which -a', to answer this question.

It means that when scp refers to /usr/bin/ssh it will be actually be
looking for d:/cygwin2/bin/ssh.exe which -- I'm guessing -- doesn't
exist.  What is and why do you have this d:/cygwin2 directory if
apparently everything in installed in d:/cygwin?

You can change it with the mount command.  See the manpage, or run mount
-m to get a set of mount commands that if run would recreate your
current mount table (i.e. edit them.)  Alternatively, just running setup
and entering d:/cygwin for the Root Directory page should accomplish the
same thing.

Unfortunately I have limited Cygwin knowledge.  Can
you please elaborate what mounts are and about how
to/risks of changing them to point to d:\cygwin
instead of d:\cygwin2.  We are currently using cygwin

Your cygcheck output shows that you have d:\cygwin\bin in the PATH,
however all of your mounts point to d:\cygwin2.  That's definitely not

scp and sftp commands not working on cygwin installed server

2007-09-14 Thread Sam Snitman
I am trying to use command line scp and sftp on a
Windows NT 5.2 server that has cygwin installed.  When
I enter the ‘scp’ command or the 'sftp' command, it
gives me the usage as if they are installed, however,
when I try to connect to a remote server using the
command ‘scp filename1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:filename2’, it
returns the message:

/usr/bin/ssh: No such file or directory
lost connection 

Same for sftp command.  I can find scp.exe and
sftp.exe in D:\cygwin\bin.  Can anyone give me some
direction on how to trouble-shoot this?  I have
attached the results of cygcheck -v -s -r.

Did you try it without doing mkdir /dev first? It should still work fine.

Maybe its been gone over before, but I question the wisdom of "hiding"
a directory like that.  It seems counterintuitive, and obviously
causes confusion for people.

Does creating a /dev directory (in the default install) cause a big problem?


Yes, this has been discussed before.  You can see the email archives to get
the details.

If you want to populate a '/dev' directory with all the devices Cygwin
supports on your system, feel free to do so.  As I recall, Igor
Peshansky floated a script on this list some time ago.  You can look
that up if you like.

  It's quite likely if you were to type "echo $?" after that, you'd see it had
exited with error status 53, which would mean you're missing a dll.  Try
running the cygcheck utility on gvim.exe, like so:

cygcheck `which gvim`

and it'll tell you what dlls gvim needs and whether they're all found or any
are missing.

Hard to say without more information, as requested in

but I suspect you have stale mounts from your previous install.  See where
your mounts point to by running the "mount" command.  Then run
"mount -sf d:/cygwin /; mount -sf d:/cygwin/bin /usr/bin; mount -sf
d:/cygwin/lib /usr/lib" and reinstall.  You can then remove the old tree...

Latest with respect to what?  An exact version number would be much more
informative.

For now, yes.  I tried it once, according to /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/coreutils-
6.9.README:

--  coreutils-5.3.0-5 -- 2005-04-14 -
Revert rm(1) implicit .exe handling, it broke libtool and was wrong on
dangling links.

--  coreutils-5.3.0-4 -- 2005-04-05 -
Improve cp(1), install(1), and mv(1) on more implicit .exe corner
cases.  Update rm(1) to also have implicit .exe handling.  Patch
dircolors(1) to support cygwin terminals by default.


On the other hand, libtool has now been fixed to avoid foo and foo.exe both in 
the same directory (at least upstream, although I'm not sure the cygwin distro 
has picked this up yet - Chuck?).  So maybe it's time for me to resurrect 
the .exe magic patch back into rm?

In the meantime, packages that use autoconf should be patched to properly use 
$(EXEEXT), because it DOES matter for cleanup on cygwin.  And even if I 
add .exe magic to rm, properly using $(EXEEXT) will still matter when you are 
porting to a non-cygwin platform with .exe, such as BeOS or mingw.

  No, why should it be?  /dev/null works perfectly.

  OK, I won't be mean.  The "bad system call" error is probably a result of
you not having the 'server' option set in your CYGWIN environment variable.

  'NUL' is a DOS device name, like COM1; cygwin implicitly supports it because
when it passes the open call to the underlying OS, the OS opens NUL as if it
were a real file that existed in every directory.

  /dev/null is the linux equivalent, and it works on cygwin too.

  Yes, /dev is missing, it's a pseudo-directory.  Creating it allows you to
*see* /dev/null in a dir listing, but even without doing so, /dev/null *does*
work, right from the off.

> I'm wondering what is the best way to deal with this? 

  Just use '/dev/null' always and everywhere, it works perfectly on both
cygwin and linux, regardless of whether or not you actually create a real
physical /dev directory.

Whither /dev/null ?

2007-09-14 Thread Jean-Claude Gervais
Hello,

I am writing bash scripts that are required to run unchanged (as much as
possible) on Cygwin and Linux.

A (small) detail I am having problems with is the issue of redirecting
output to the null device, or bit-bucket.

If I write the following

ls > nul

It works as expected under Cygwin, however under Linux I must write

ls > /dev/null

I searched and found discussions on the Cygwin mailing list that seemed
to say that Cygwin supported (supports?) the /dev/null device, but I
checked my installation and this pseudo-device didn't seem to exist on
my system. The '/dev' folder was missing.

I discovered that if I created the folder '/dev', afterwards
the /dev/null device existed, even if it does not appear as an actual
file under /dev

I installed cygwin only a few weeks ago using the
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe method, and it was missing the /dev
folder.

I compared this to the other machines around me which are running a
version of Cygwin which is about two years old, same results: /dev is
missing, but creating it unleashes the /dev/null pseudo-device.

I'm wondering what is the best way to deal with this? I'd like the
scripts to work straight out of the box and not have to make the users
create their own /dev and creating it for them would be tedious because
every script would have to check for this...

Any advice?

Dear all,

I have installed cygwin on the folder "D:\cygwin", and it is okay but
I have forgot to install "make". Maybe a mistake to delete all the
contents in "D:\cygwin", but unfortunately I did.

After I reinstall cygwin from scratch (also in d:\cygwin), I cannot

How to fix this? Thanks for any suggestions.

Re: drag and drop to cygwin scripts ?

Is it possible to write a script in cygwin, say bash or perl, create a shortcut

If you drag and drop files onto a batch script, Windows will run the 
batch script with the files as arguments. So you just need to write a 
batch script which will load bash and tell it to run your script with 
those arguments. As an example, you can edit your cygwin.bat, and change 
this line:


bash --login -i

to this:

bash -i -e /script/you/want/to/run.bash %*

And that will do what you want. Keep in mind that the file names will be 
in the Windows path format, so you will probably want to use a wrapper 
script that applies cygpath to them before passing them on to something 
else.


If you want the script to run inside an xterm or whatever, you can do 
that too.

Is there someone offering cygwin paid support?

2007-09-14 Thread Marko Loparic
Hello,

Is there someone that could offer paid support for a cygwin problem I have?

I have tried to contact Red Hat but they did not seem interested in
offering support for the type of problem I have (or perhaps I didn't
reach the right person...).

It is described in the cygwin list:

 http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-02/msg00023.html
 http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-08/msg00468.html
 http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2007-08/msg00517.html

Some people helped, but it was not enough to solve the problem.

Thanks a lot,
Marko

  Hey, hang on a minute... it *is* because Cygwin's refusing to delete files
for no reason!

  Hmm.  So, after the rm command, we still have:

/usr/local/bin:
+cyguninameslist-0.dll
+cyguninameslist-fr-0.dll
+fontforge.exe
+fontimage
+pfaedit.exe

/usr/local/man/man1:
+fontimage.1

/usr/local/share:
+fontforge

+/usr/local/share/fontforge:
+Adobe-CNS1-4.cidmap
+Adobe-GB1-4.cidmap
+Adobe-Identity-0.cidmap
+Adobe-Japan1-6.cidmap
+Adobe-Japan2-0.cidmap
+Adobe-Korea1-2.cidmap

  So, there seems to be a failure of 'exe magic', and part of it is because he
hasn't allowed for the cygwin library naming scheme (and the fact that dlls go
into bin, not lib).  The working version of the command should therefore be:

$ rm -rf /usr/local/bin/{fontforge.exe,fontimage,sfddiff,pfaedit.exe} \
 /usr/local/bin/cyguninameslist* \
 /usr/local/lib/{libgdraw,libgunicode,libuninameslist}* \
 /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/fontforge.pc \
 /usr/local/man/man1/{fontforge,fontimage,sfddiff}.1 \
 /usr/local/share/doc/fontforge \
 /usr/local/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/FontForge.mo \
 /usr/local/share/fontforge


  You could pass it on to the fontforge guy if you liked.

  He is wrong.

  The command he provided is a simple delete of all the files that the
installer should have installed.  If it doesn't work, it's not because Cygwin
refused to delete the files for no reason, it's because he's specified the
wrong paths in that command.

  Basically, you need to find the files listed in the 'rm' command:

sftp provides you with an FTP command set where scp does not

that's about the only thing I can think of that makes a difference;

transfers, but if you are more familiar and comfortable with scp, then
use it

More information is required in order to provide any help.  Do you get
any errors when you issue the above commands?  What actually happens
when you issue the commands?  What makes you believe the removal does
not occur?

You still haven't told us what your problem is.

You did *not* use Cygwin to install the program. The Cygwin installer 
is Setup.exe and you did not use that.

I have no idea. The snippet you showed us does that. On the other hand 
there is no reason why the uninstall script wouldn't work.

When I tried to ask the developer of the program how to remove the program he 
indicated
that the problem was not with fontforge, but with Cygwin, so that is why I came 
to this
user group to find out how to fix the problem.  If on the other hand all I have 
to do is
just manually remove the program, I did not know that was possible because I 
was under
the assumption that since I used cygwin to install the program I would need 
(cygwin) to
uninstall the program.  Do I just go to the directory that it is located in and 
delete
the file and that is it.  Or is there more that I would need to do?

A sufficient problem description would be fine. What happens when you 
issue this command and why does it not uninstall the program?

On the other hand it really doesn't matter: the command just removes 
all the fontforge files. Why don't you do it by hand? It would take 
about two minutes of your precious time.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gnuplot-4.2.2-1

2007-09-14 Thread Dr. Volker Zell
Hi

A new version of 'gnuplot' has been uploaded to a server near you.


DESCRIPTION:

Gnuplot is a command-line driven interactive function plotting utility
for UNIX, MSDOS, VMS, and many other platforms.  The software is copyrighted
but freely distributed (i.e., you don't have to pay for it).  It was
originally intended as graphical program which would allow scientists
and students to visualize mathematical functions and data.  Gnuplot
supports many different types of terminals, plotters, and printers
(including many color devices, and pseudo-devices like LaTeX) and is
easily extensible to include new devices.
Gnuplot handles both curves (2 dimensions) and surfaces (3
dimensions). Surfaces can be plotted as a mesh fitting the specified
function, floating in the 3-d coordinate space, or as a contour plot
on the x-y plane. For 2-d plots, there are also many plot styles,
including lines, points, lines with points, error bars, and impulses
(crude bar graphs). Graphs may be labeled with arbitrary labels and
arrows, axes labels, a title, date and time, and a key.  The interface
includes command-line editing and history on most platforms.



CYGWIN NEWS:


o Update to latest upstream release.

o Added
   /usr/local/share/texmf/fonts/type1!,
   /usr/share/texmf/fonts/type1!,
   /usr/local/share/fonts!,

  to the system fontpath.


gnuplot NEWS:
=

* NEW allow extra column in 2D plots containing color information
* NEW set term latex {size XX,YY}
* FIX buffering of very long input lines
* FIX clipping of image data against plot boundary
* FIX polygon clipping bugs
* FIX key sample for plots with variable color
* FIX wxt initialization on non-gnu systems
* FIX escape sequence %% handling in sprintf() format strings
* FIX Apply "set style incr user" to 3D contours and to histograms
* FIX Apply "set key {no}enhanced" to key titles read from a file
* FIX Allow string variable as filename for "fit via "
* CHANGE defer x11 initialization until first plot command
* CHANGE clean up configuration files for amg, cyg, mgw, dj2
* CHANGE modify SVG output to accommodate non-compliant viewers
* CHANGE allow 'strcol()' as shorthand for 'stringcolumn()'

Uninstalling a program from Cygwin in Windows XP

2007-09-14 Thread D
I have installed a program called Fontforge (An
outline font editor) into the Cygwin environment in
order to create and manipulate fonts for Windows XP. I
would like to update the editor, but when I try the
uninstall commands cygwin does not uninstall the
program can some provide help as to how to uninstall
Fontforge.  

This is the command that was used to install the
program in Cygwin:

$ bunzip2 fontforge_cygwin-*.tar.bz2
$ tar xf fontforge_cygwin-*.tar
$ cd fontforge
$ ./doinstall

Now when I try to uninstall the program I was supposed
to use this command:
$ su
password:
$ rm -rf /usr/local/bin/{fontforge,sfddiff} \
/usr/local/lib/{libgdraw,libgunicode,libuninameslist}*
\
/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/fontforge.pc \
/usr/local/man/man1/{fontforge,sfddiff}.1 \
/usr/local/share/doc/fontforge \
/usr/local/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/FontForge.mo

but it does not uninstall the program.  Any
suggestions as to what I need to do to uninstall this
program?

This is not a bug in the shell, but rather in the script. You must
either use OPTIND=1 together with shift, to reset option processing,
as per the manual page, or just not use shift at all.
