Re: X file manager for Cygwin?

2004-08-31 Thread J. David Boyd
I just got gentoo to compile and run fine on Cygwin. I had to install all the gtk stuff first, but it works like a champ. Give it a try. I don't remember where I got the source for gentoo, I believe it was on sourceforge.

2005-06-08 Thread J. David Boyd
