I can't find this file_open snippet. There doesn't look to be anything weird in the command editor. This may be a stupid question, but did you do a clean compile?
In my experience, Cygwin has gotten a LOT better since RedHat took over. I remember a couple of years ago, it took me all day to get ROM to compile on there. Now it seems to implement the Unix APIs almost perfectly. Actually I've dropped cygwin for mingw nowdays, since its binaries don't rely on that dll file. I still have Cygwin installed for its really good X server though. that got a little off subject.. --Palrich ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Lewis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, November 23, 2003 8:28 AM Subject: Cygwin Vs Unix > Heya, > > Just wondering if anyone has found any discrepancies between Cygwin and > Unix. > > I am running the most up to date version of Cygwin (and all its > components) on a WinXp box. > > I do all my coding in WinXp, then compile it up in Cygwin.
