But that's not the only problem running mc AFAICS. I'm seeing an error message in the background: Cannot open named pipe /tmp/mc-corinna/mc.pipe.384 /cygdrive/d/cyg_pub/devel/mc/mc-4.8.23-1.x86_64/src/mc-4.8.23/src/subshell/common.c: open: Permission denied It looks like there's another problem, this time with the new FIFO code. Ken, care to take a look? Thanks, Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Cygwin Maintainer
