If you use an rxvt window (look in the c:\cygwin\bin folder and double click on rxvt.exe) copy and paste is much simpler. In a windows application do a copy as usual and then in the rxvt window simply press the middle mouse button to paste. Conversely, in an rxvt window simply select what you want to copy (it is automatically copied in the windows clipboard) and than do a paste in a windows app. > Well, I might as well get on with this and deliver a report.

Are you sure that you are not trying to build a dynamic library? My instructions are for building a static Qt library. I can't build a dynamic Qt because I only have 256 Mb of memory and the build stops with an out of memory error. In this case I can't be of much help...

If you have installed the official cygwin Qt packages, perhaps this is a symptom of a sort of clashing. -- Enrico
