Hello Carey, Thanks for the tip. I have downloaded the http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/cygipc/cygipc-1.11-1.tar. bz2 file and that's what happen when I try to follow the instructions:
$ tar -C / -xjf cygipc-1.11-1.tar.bz2 tar (child): cygipc-1.11-1.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors Maybe the folder which must hold the file is not the correct. Would you give me a little more help? Please, keep in mind I don't know unix. If it would be DOS or CP/M, things would be slightly different :-) Thanks a lot.
