Though I'd caution that in my testing (way back when) I found that the cygwin build of my code was Really Slow, whereas the same code built with VC6 (at the time and currently Msys/mingw) was notably faster. Albrecht has used the cygwin stuff more recently so he may have a more current view on that, but back in the day it did seem that all the "unix emulation" layer under cygwin was slowing things down a lot... YMMV of course... _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
