Forget that last request because I have made some svn changes that make that request irrelevant. As of revision 7981 when you execute ./get-drv-info.exe ps that application internally prepends the drivers directory path to the search term (ps in this case) just like what occurs for the core plplot library. Because of this change libltdl (called by that application) now searches for /cygdrive/c/arjen/plplot-svn/install-cygwin/drivers/ps.so rather than ps.so as in prior revisions. I am hoping this change to an automatic full path used for searching for dynamically loaded devices (now done just like the PLplot core library) will solve the get-drv-info problem for Cygwin. Please do the simple test again for revision 7981 and let me know the detailed results. If get-drv-info continues not to work when starting from an empty build tree, please let me know full test results again. If get-drv-info now works starting from an empty build tree, then please continue the test all the way through to the build and test of the installed examples. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
