 I just tried to dd the first 163 GB of a raw drive to a image file.
 It failed at about 145 GB.  Should it work?
 I had plenty of free space.   

Another possibility is addressed at:

(Something justed gleaned off of the samba list.)

PROGRAM TEMP

 *This program converts Celsius to Farenheit   *

 *The variable used is:  *

REAL DEGC, DEGF
PRINT * , 'ENTER THE TEMPERATURE IN DEGRESS C:'
 READ * , DEGC
DEGF = 9 / 5 * DEGC + 32
PRINT * , 'DEGRESS FARENHEIT:' , DEGF
 END

 I compiled it with this command

 gcc -o projec -c projec.f

 Besides the fact that this program does not produce correct results (entering
 -40 produces output of -8 which certainly is incorrect), is it also not
 an error to be trying to compile a FORTRAN program with gcc? Should he not be
 using g77 instead? 

gcc will figure out what to do based on the suffix.  The reason it produces
incorrect output is becasue 9 / 5 = 1 (integer roundoff).  Use floats.

Re: setup hangs during postinstall

2003-10-08 Thread Don Koch
  Have we ever gotten a 'ps -ef' when setup.exe is hung?  It would be nice
  to know if it is sh or bash that is having problems or cygpath itself.
 
  I can't find one of these in the archives but I could easily have missed
  it.

 Hmm... what is that supposed to tell?

Just out of curiosity, does it hang if no other cygwin programs are running
at the time you run setup?

NT-Emacs, bash and ^C still not working?

2003-09-25 Thread Don Koch
After digging through the archives and finding a thread that died on
May 8, 2001, http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2001-05/msg00319.html,
I was wondering what the conclusion, if any, was on getting ctrl-c
working in an NT Emacs shell window running bash?  As of Cygwin
5.5.1, bash 2.05b, emacs 21.2, this still doesn't work (at least, for us).

If there's a magic setting I'm missing, I can't find it documented anywhere.

Thanks,
