Graphicks Magic on Vista?
Has anyone gotten gm[.exe] to work on Vista? I keep getting pop-up Windows boxes saying gm has stopped working ... with of course Vistas favorite non-functioning toggle switch line about trying to find a solution, blah, blah, blah, blah. Thanks, Lee P.S. Cygwin folk say Vista is not supported. That's only because they're spoiled sports. They expect things to work. ;-) -- 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/

I know. cygcheck output says otherwise but it is a bit behind the times. ;-) Sorry, can't provide any other feedback about your message ATM. :-( -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

I am willing to help, to the extent that my meager GNU development skills will allow. Test, maybe? I was writing a brief tutorial on using 'gm' to do batch processing of oodles of images, when my system died and the new Vista system renders (if you'll excuse the expression) 'gm' a goner. unMagicklee -- 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/

But I haven't been there yet (and probably won't be for at least a couple of weeks). The system I have with Vista is primarily an XP machine for work and booting down and around to Vista just isn't an non-intrusive enough task that I can do it quickly and easily. Beyond that, I don't know diddly about 'gm' so about the only thing I'm likely to have a chance to do when I get there is run it and see if things work better or worse for me relative to XP. One can always hope that I have some inspiration if and when I see a problem but at this point, I wouldn't recommend holding your breath waiting for me to come up with a patched version, unless you're looking to set a new world record for breath- holding. ;-) -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
