Yesterday, I've submitted a patch to the Cygwin folks which fixes the cause for the stale subshell problem. The bugfix will be available as soon as a new Cygwin release is made. In the meantime you can use snapshots from: http://www.cygwin.com/snapshots/ Every snapshot built after August 17 should be ok. Once a new Cygwin release is out I'll release and updated MC package for Cygwin which will have the subshell enabled by default. _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
