Using setup-2002-01-27-1.exe I have noticed that the text in the selection dialog is clipped. i.e. there appear to be ~3 pixels missing from the top of the displayed text on my 1280x1024 display. Haven't seen it reported so I thought I'd mention it. Cheers Don Sharp -- Unsubscribe info:

How about adding a /dev/registry fhandler to Cygwin? Registry keys would be directories and values in the registry files. I'm willing to try coding this if people think it's a good idea. It allows shell scripts to easily access registry keys as well as programs. Regards Chris -- Unsubscribe
