Doxygen
Hi Making doxygen package completed! http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-SanJose/5153/cygwin-package/doxygen-1.2.18-1-package.tgz including binary,source,setup.hint. Please check! It can make tex and html output. (But without doxywizard, I don't use doxywizard.) Note: the patch file is very big (900kb), because of my editing eps file. Thanks, Ryunosuke Satoh [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [New Package] tmake-1.8-1, Please vote !
setup.hint: category: Devel Utils I think just Devel would be fine. That's what automake and make are. This package seems to work fine. The example requires qt so it doesn't really compile, but oh well. The point is to generate the Makefile, which works. It doesn't seem actually to be limited to just qt. The exe is converted with perl2exe, does it actually rely on perl in any way? The license seems to be a BSD-advert-like (with TrollTech instead of UCB), which might cause problems if it is used by GPL projects, no? Might want to mention that in the annoucement. Too bad, looks useful. Typo in /usr/doc/Cygwin/tmake-blah.README: Making binary package: $ cd /usr/src/astyle-(VERSION) ^^ There are a couple other lines with astyle instead of tmake too. Also I don't like that just doing a make in the src directory actually installs, but I suppose that's something to take up with TrollTech. __ Do you Yahoo!?

Harold L Hunt II wrote: Good point Alexander. On a side note: Why is it that XDarwin has so many people contributing code and features (they seem to have an OpenGL-passthrough system now, which is pretty amazing), while Cygwin/XFree86 has so few contributors? This seems contradictory because Windows is on 95% of desktops while Mac OS X is only on 1% (~20% of Apple's 5% market share are running Mac OS X). That question will probably always baffle me. Not really. The people running Darwin are mostly programmers or computer freaks which want to go other ways than the normal. They know how to code. Most windows users are - in contrary - only users which want a working program. They don't like coding. They want a shortcut on the desktop which starts the program. It must be easy and straight. Or the other way: people who know to code are able to run a unix (and deal with all it's problems). They don't need windows anymore.

Re: sysvinit for cygwin?
Ariel, If you system crashes, you should rectify that problem one way or another. BASH implements the suspend command, so you might be able to work with that. Recent email on this list (Subject: GNU screen package ??) in this list suggests that this program (screen, i.e.: http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/screen.html) might work for you and can be compiled to operate under cygwin with little or no work.

RE: Setup window size: a suggestion
[was Re: RFE - Cygwin setup.exe] My appolgies, seems folks have started thread on this already... I see 2 ways to overcome the issue of the resizable installer/ package selection dialog size: Option 1) add a button to the bottom of the package selection screen that says 'Zoom' and make it open only the packages selection related stuff in a new modal window that is bigger/resizable. Option 2) rework the whole setup program to be resizable, this can be done using a lot of panels that are aligned something like this (I've done this in Delphi before): +-Form1 + |+-P1-alTop+| ||+P3-alClient-++P2-alRight|| ||| Choose...|| [Icon] ||| ||+++-+|| |+-+| |+-P6-alClient-+| || || || () Install from Internet|| || () DL from Internet || || () Install from Localdir|| || || |+-+| |+-P4-alBottom-+| || +P5-alRight|| || |[buttons]||| || +-+|| |+-+| +---+ Px is TPanel type, where x is the creation order using a gui. al is the Align property of the Tpanel object. If I had to choose, I would do option 1 cause it is really easy, and I'm lazy. option 2 would be quite a bit more rework to the way things are I should think. -Garth Northern.CA ===-- http://www.northern.ca Canada's Search Engine On Sat, 28 Sep 2002 10:57:16 -0400 (EDT) Igor Pechtchanski wrote: Garth, You may start by searching the cygwin and cygwin-apps mailing lists archives for resizable setup...

Re: How does cygwin map / to c:/cygwin?
Jeff Perry wrote: I am very confused about how cygwin maps its root to the c:/cygwin directory. I'm also not sure what /cygdrive is. When I type gvim /etc/passwd from bash, gvim comes up with an empty file called passwd in c:/etc (which doesn't exist). If I try to write this file, gvim fails, which, of course, it should. (The gvim I'm using is the one compiled for NT). Can someone tell me why this happens? The Cygwin POSIX paths come from the cygwin1.dll. So if your program hasn't been compiled for Cygwin, it won't understand Cygwin paths. Also, when I try to tab-expand /cygdrive/c/..., bash can never expand the files. For example, if I type $ cd /cygdrive/c/winntab, bash cannot complete the 't' and instead beeps. But if I complete it for bash by adding the t and the pressing return, bash will cd me to the c:/winnt directory. Can someone tell me why this is true? Sounds like case clashes.

What I meant was that the directory is named Documents and Settings, not Document and Settings, as you typed in your original post. But I'm sure it was just a typo. What is your $CYGWIN setting? Are you running ncftp from a bash shell, or from a shortcut? If the latter, is your $CYGWIN set in .bashrc or similar, or is it set in the Windows environment? CYGWIN is not set at all I'm running from bash ncftp seems to extract the value of $HOME from /etc/passwd, rather than from the current value of $HOME... What is your home directory set to in /etc/passwd? This is probably a bug in [the Cygwin port of] ncftp (either that or an outdated man page). Hm. in /etc/passwd my home is /home/[username] All users' homes are like that under /home I wonder if this has always been in cygwin. I never looked in /etc/passwd before. This is the default. You can edit /etc/passwd and change it for your user (make a backup copy first, just in case). If the directory specified in /etc/passwd is missing, this could be the reason for the error message you're getting. FYI, $NCFTPDIR represents the name of the directory that will actually contain the files, not the parent of .ncftp, i.e. the default setting would be NCFTPDIR=$HOME/.ncftp. It works for me on Win2k SP2, same version of ncftp as you have.

Re: Beginner- need help in understanding
Nehal, This one comes under the Cygwin is not Unix (nor Linux) category. Cygwin does not include its own file system--it uses those of the underlying Windows operating system on which it runs. That means FAT (FAT-16 and FAT-32 as well) and under Windows NT, 2000 or XP, NTFS are generally available. Remote file system accessed via Windows File Sharing (which could include ext2 file systems via Samba, e.g.) are also accessible from Cygwin. If you installed other 3rd-party file system drivers on your Windows system, then the contents of such file systems would also be available in Cygwin, too. Otherwise, no file systems are rendered accessible by virtue of installing Cygwin itself. To answer your other question, installing Cygwin will not impair, impede, curtail nor foreclose access to any capabilities, software or facilities already installed and working on your PC.

So now you're a BigShot now? (clarification re. MinGW Glib)
The topic is build configuration of software packages as done by many authors/maintainers who used GNU Autotools as their build system. I was challenged on a patch I showed readers of the mingw-users List, a patch to the current glib 'configure.ac' file. My response, which I crossposted to the Autoconf-Users List because of the salience of the issues, may leave some readers with confusion (even if they don't know it) about the intent of my statements (especially in view of some portions with numerous typos ;-). I am going to try to clarify my main point here. Many may react with disagreement; the views I am expressing are expected to be seen as controversial. I wrote in [EMAIL PROTECTED] on Sat, 28 Sep 2002 18:16:09... Almost no degree of invective would suffice to express how resentful I feel I justifiably am on account of this blindness or warped perspective on the part of people who have become comfortable and dogmatic about Autotools. It has made people who write or maintain Autotools-based 'configure' scripts complacent and mediocre about the quality of their scripts and a huge part of the problem lies there. I cannot even blame the maintainers of autoconf and its chums to the degree that I blame the package maintainers out there for laziness and lack of empathy and insight into what they are inflicting on their users. What I meant by that is explained from here. So You are a BigShot now -- This is addressed to people who have taken up maintainership of Open Source software packages (either as an inheriter or especially as an original author). You know better than anyone what sort of thought process you lived as you reached a decision to undertake this. I've read a lot of defensive vitriol in the past along the lines of how DARE you criticize or complain about people who voluntarily and without compensation maintain Free Software for you, the Obviously Ungrateful User, to enjoy. I have a got a couple observations to make about that old schtick now. First of all, in Hackerdom, the line between Users and Producers is far from cut-and-dried. Many users of somebody's package are authors or maintainers of other packages. There's mutual interdependency here. Secondly there is the fact of human nature that there ARE compensations for maintaining Free / Open (abbrev F/O from here) Software. They are intangible compensations. Developing software is innately rewarding for many people who do it (hopefully for those for whom it is not, they'll eventually get into a different line of work more suited to them). There is the justifiable pride of workmanship. Software is a creation of the mind and it *does* things, useful things. Developing a good piece of software is no different from inventing or making a good tool or machine. Also, there are the opinions of peers (others who are 'in the know' about programming) and the regard one can come to be held in by producing a good software tool. If your tool is VERY successful, it might become the foremost of its kind, dominating an entire niche. If it becomes something that other tools rely on, then you'll be in the position of having others dependent on you (which is a fundamental type of _power_ in all realms of human affairs). Some authors or maintainers also have philosophical beliefs and convictions that concern a different, more abstract level than the pragmatic what it does -ness of the package. Such people feel a sense of being a part of an important and liberating movement in Human history, that supporting a piece of the Free Software movement and Open Source is promoting values and principles that can lead to a better society and way of life for all people in the future. Finally there is an aspect of reward that's possibly more fundamental than any of the others mentioned above. That is simply the sense of righteousness or worthiness one gets from giving something to others, from being the giver of the gift. Individual people vary in capacity in terms of to what extent they experience this or can be conscious of experiencing it. So You are a BigShot now means simply to make reference to the fact that for all these reasons, something we finally have to admit is about status in the F/O Community being connected to authorship or maintainership of software packages. It is not just ME who says so; those who have read Eric S. Raymond will be familiar with this discussion. And BigShot refers not only to how others view you, but also to how you (in the secrecy of your own heart) view yourself. This mutual-interdependency thing is innate in the philosophy of code re-use that is a primary principle of GNU. I having been trying to express something that I see more and more of that I think threatens to rot the underpinnings of this F/O software world. As I learn, I try more and more packages, and am especially inclined as a consumer of software

Nehal, Perhaps I wasn't so clear in explaining the situation. I don't think you're going to be able to read an ext2-formatted diskette without some other software.

[Proposal] Moving user mount information to HKLM
This is in reply to Christopher Faylor's message http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/msg01428.html. I hope it will show up correctly in the mail list. .. I expect that, as time progresses, there will be more checks to ensure that doesn't happen. 1.3.13 has new checks for this, in fact. This makes sense only if RH views Cygwin as an Microsoft Windows OS UNIX extension and not as a standalone UNIX emulator or VM running on top of Windows. You don't install two versions of linux on your system and expect them to interoperate at the same time. Ditto, cygwin.It is like comparing apples with oranges. I have not seen yet Linux running directly on top of a win32 host, nontheless cygwin running naked without a win32 host. Everybody who read the code knows that a debug cygwin1.dll or regular one built for a different shared memory and registry can coexist with other versions. What's wrong in having the latest 'stable' version of Cygwin and also experimenting with the latest net release installed on the same computer. One can use the stable one and switch to the most recent one when percieved as stable. Or get back to the version on which things where working fine. It is all about freedom.

This makes sense only if RH views Cygwin as an Microsoft Windows OS UNIX extension and not as a standalone UNIX emulator or VM running on top of Windows. It makes sense in the context of many many many people having problems with two versions of cygwin in their path or even just on the system. Their problems aren't due to the fact that I'm being mean. The problems are due to the fact that cygwin makes some assumptions about the layout of areas passed between processes, both in shared memory and as part of the cygheap. You don't install two versions of linux on your system and expect them to interoperate at the same time. Ditto, cygwin. It is like comparing apples with oranges. I have not seen yet Linux running directly on top of a win32 host, nontheless cygwin running naked without a win32 host. The point is that cygwin is essentially an OS in the context in which it is being used. You don't run two OS's on the system at the same time unless you're running some kind of micro-kernel or something. I am trying to set the mind set here. As the person responsible for cygwin development, that's how we are progressing. Now that you understand, by way of analogy, how we are progressing, it should be easier for you to comprehend. If you want to use a Windows analogy, think two versions of msvcrt.dll. Having two of those in the path can also cause problems. Everybody who read the code knows that a debug cygwin1.dll or regular one built for a different shared memory and registry can coexist with other versions. Actually, it doesn't work all that well, even in this context. We have a problem with this RIGHT NOW, in fact. Getting this working reliably is a constant battle. It was actually quite broken for months. It's only a little broken now. What's wrong in having the latest 'stable' version of Cygwin and also experimenting with the latest net release installed on the same computer. Nothing at all. Do it all the time. I switch back and forth. I actually keep two versions on my system, since I know how to do that. I just am careful not to run both at the same time or to do so in contexts that I know won't cause problems. One can use the stable one and switch to the most recent one when percieved as stable. Or get back to the version on which things where working fine. Sure, switch away. Copy the cygwin DLLs, using windows utilities, into your cygwin bin directory. You realize that I, and any other person who develops cygwin, has to do this all of the time, right? I'm managing quite well without having to run two versions at the same time. It is all about freedom. Why to deliberately restrict this? Because getting it working reliably is hard and having two versions of the DLL on the system is a technical support nightmare.

ncftp's lls requiring /bin/more
Another ncftp peculiarity is lls, which won't work because it requires /usr/bin/more. The manual says you can set the environmental variable, $PAGER, but that didn't work for me. I forced lls to work by linking /bin/less to /bin/more. -- Greg MathesonFailed to turn my reluctant students into autonomous Chinmin College language learners, but it did wonders for my personal fitness program.
