how is this different that 'ccache'? ....weird.... Has something changed in how exe files are looked up? I thought I used to be able to do a 'file /usr/bin/ccache' and have it work, but now it needs the ".exe" -- was I just confused in a linux kinda way?

It also depends on bash. I tried it on cygwin and it seems to work. (Although some of the instructions might need tweaking as the version number was upped but the instructions weren't) Its usefulness would be in direct proportion to how large and time-consuming your compiles may be. If you are short on disk space to begin with, you might want to skip it. neal -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
