Hi Joe,

On Apr 17 16:12, Joe Allen wrote:
 I've modified JOE to be Cygwin compliant (it used to be called
 joe-3.3, now it's called joe-3.3-1), and I've created a
 script to make a Cygwin release of JOE whenever there is new
 main release of JOE.

Cool!  I'm not sure I understand you correctly, but it sounds you changed
the version number of joe to take over the Cygwin scheme.  That wasn't
necessary since the -1 is just the Cygwin subversion, for example, if you
changed the layout of the Cygwin tar archive for some reason.  If I just
got you wrong, scratch my comment :-)

 One thing I'm not sure about: I've listed aspell as a
 requirement.  This is not really true- the editor will run
 without it, but I find it annoying when the speller is not
 there, so it's kind of a soft requirement.

It's kinda your choice as the maintainer of the package and the usual
result of including also optional dependencies is that you will get
less questions on the Cygwin list in the style of JOE work but speeling
work not, help how?

 Here are the files:
 
 http://world.std.com/~jhallen/joe-3.3-1.tar.bz
 http://world.std.com/~jhallen/joe-3.3-1-src.tar.bz
 http://world.std.com/~jhallen/setup.hint
 
 Here is the setup.hint:
 
 category: Editors
 requires: cygwin aspell
 sdesc: Joe's Own Editor - world-famous Wordstar-like text editor
 ldesc: Joe's Own Editor - world-famous Wordstar-like text editor
 Includes clones of several other editors:
  joe - Main user interface
  jmacs - Gnu-emacs clone
  jstar - Wordstar clone
  jpico - PICO clone
 Editor has syntax highlighting, i18n support and works well
 in Cygwin console.

I reviewed the packaging and it looks pretty good to me with just one
exception.  Is it really intended to put the joe specific stuff, namely
the joe subdirectory into /etc?  This looks weird.  I'd prefer if the
joe subdir would be located in /usr/share which seems to be the correct
location following the FHS.

I don't think including that dependency is a good idea.
What if someone wants to use joe for editing source code? Or perhaps just 
wants a small install, and has faith in their own spelling? In such 
situations, the dependency would be very annoying.

  Hmm, it may depend on compiler or libstdc++ version.  When I run it under
gdb, the C++ class throws a range error exception.  When I run it standalone
I get a gpf-looking error box which is probably a default unhandled
exception handler.  Either way it bombs.

  Hang on, let me show you: I reverted the patch and recompiled, then I
renamed d.sh.done to d.sh in a DOS prompt and ran setup under gdb (ok, i
know that would cause a problem if any files needed replacing, but they
don't.)

Hi, a short first glance review:
 

Editor has syntax highlighting, i18n support and works well
in Cygwin console.
   

* When I start joe in a console mode window (DOS box) and type a 
 non-ASCII letter, an 8-bit stripped character is displayed in 
 reverse mode instead.
 

The editor looks at LC_CTYPE to determine the locale of the terminal.
* When I start joe in a UTF-8 xterm, instead of non-ASCII characters 
 joe displays 8-bit stripped characters in reverse mode for each 
 single byte of the UTF-8 sequence.
 

This is still correct, because LC_CTYPE is still not set.
* When I try to enable Unicode with $HOME/.joerc containing the line:
-encoding utf-8
 , joe hangs after starting.
 

You need to copy the joerc file to $HOME/.joerc
It does not look at both file, so if you don't copy everything you don't 
have any key bindings.

* When I have an empty file $HOME/.joerc, joe hangs after starting.
 

Likewise.
This is not working i18n support.
 

Delete your $HOME/.joerc
Then in your utf-8 xterm, type:
 export LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8(LC_ALL will also work).
 joe some_file_with_utf8_chars
(JOE will assume the terminal is UTF-8 and the default file type is 
UTF-8.  You can override the file type
by hitting ^T E in the editor (hit tab at the prompt for a list) or by 
using the -encoding option in the joerc file.
Then JOE will translate between the terminal's encoding and the file's 
encoding).

Kind regards,

2005-04-18 Thread Robert Richter
Hi all,

please upload a new Apache-1.3.33 package available here:

http://www.fast4ward.de/cygwin/release/apache/apache-1.3.33-1-src.tar.bz2
http://www.fast4ward.de/cygwin/release/apache/apache-1.3.33-1.tar.bz2
http://www.fast4ward.de/cygwin/release/apache/setup.hint

Release focus: Update from version 1.3.29

The Apache package contains the mod_ssl EAPI patch but no additional module
extensions. These are part of further releases.

Since this package is a replacement of an older version, I do not think this
release increases the risk of conflicts with an upcoming Apache2 package.

Thanks,
Robert

I got used to /etc/joerc and the various other rc files there.
/etc/joe/*rc looks good to me.
Still my favorite editor, though it has persistent \t bugs.
But I'm stuck with 2.9.7pre1 on cygwin for the last years.
Good to have the original author back to support that!

downgrade a 5-button- to a 3-button-mouse

2005-04-18 Thread Hermann-Josef Beckers
We are running a propietary application on a tablet pc  (windows XP 
Tablet-PC-Edition).. Most
everything works, but there is a small glitch: For handling reasons some 
(function-)keys
are combined into a small panel. Clicking the keys with the pen has no 
effect. Entering these
keys with the virtual keyboard or a real attached keyboard works.

From the support-line:
This application DGK5 supports the configuration of a 3-button-mouse 
only. In Cygwin is a
5-button-mouse configured. You have to configure the Cygwin-X-server in 
such a way,
that a 3-button-mouse is recognized.

HOW? 
A Xfree-conf-file isn't used in Cygwin (AFAIK). -emulate3buttons has no 
effect, as it works 
the other way up (3 buttons on a 2-button-mouse). 

Any hints?

Yours

Cygwin/X will use a 3button mouse by default and ask windows how many additional
buttons the mouse supports. I'm have no idea how these special function keys 
are 
supposed to work, but functions keys which depend on a mouse setting are broken
in my opinion. 

You may check with xev if the keys are somehow recognized in Cygwin/X 
nevertheless.

For windows there are basicly two input devices. Keyboards and mice. 
Keyboards will generate keypress and release events (WM_KEYDOWN). 
Mice produce button press and relese events (WM_[LMRX]BUTTONDOWN) 
for the left, middle, right and extra buttons. 

The WM_KEYUP has two kind of key information attached. The raw keyboard
scancodes and the codes after applying the keyboard layout. Cygwin/X 
only uses the raw scancodes. If they don't match the real key it is very 
likely the key is not recognized.

I've placed a small program on http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~goal/xfree/msgtest.exe
which will dump the messages to the console. Please run it and report 
what it prints when pressing the onscreen keys and what it reports 
when pressing the physical key.

Re: starting xterm from tcsh, gives error message: missing }.

2005-04-18 Thread Bengt Svensson
Thanks Michael for the answer, you were correct.
It was a problem with spaces in the PATH. It is the script 
/etc/profile.d/00xorg-x11-base.csh that does not handle the space. I 
verified this by removing the part of the PAT that had the space in it. 
The script is attached here in its original form. Hopefully someone who is 
better than me at csh scripting can find a solution for future versions 
of cygwin.

Bengt Svensson
$ more 00xorg-x11-base.csh
# The script name starts with 00 to ensure that it is executed before any
# other scripts because one of them may need to know where X is to run
# properly.
# Check if the PATH variable is empty or not
if ( $?PATH ) then
  # PATH is not empty
  # Check if path is already in PATH
  eval /bin/echo ${PATH} | /bin/grep -q /usr/X11R6/bin
  if ( $status ) then
# Path is not already in PATH, prepend it to PATH
setenv PATH /usr/X11R6/bin:${PATH}
  endif
else
  # PATH is empty

 I recently updated my cygwin so everything should be current. But see attached

You haven't given enough context in that script to determine why that
line was problematic and I don't have a Cygwin install in front of me,
so I can't check.
To me that line looks fine as it was, however the purpose of the eval
was not obvious.  I think that statement would be better without the
eval at all.
I notice that one directory in your PATH contains a space (c:\Program
Files\Common Files\MDL Shared\ISIS).  If you examine your output from
cygcheck you will see that something weird is happening.
My guess is that at least one script in profile.d isn't handling
directories with spaces properly.  They really should be rewritten to
use the $path variable instead ($path is an array, $PATH is a scalar) or
to explicitly set IFS and use proper quoting.

Re: sshd problems

2005-04-18 Thread giuseppe
Hi, John!
Of course thanks againn!

So, let's start. this time you asked

- From your data it appears that you can ssh to the 
localhost which means your sshd server is 
- running.  However, you can't connect to your localhost 
from the Linux machine; the connection 
- times out.  Your other examples all look like they are 
connections from the localhost to other 
- machines, which all appear to work.
- 
- Is this a Windows XP machine with Service Pack 2 
installed?  Have you opened up the firewall 
- to allow port 22 through?  If not, that explains 
your problem.  Port 22 is blocked by default.
- 
- The firewall won't block ssh connections originating 
from your localhost to other machines.  
- That would be consistent with the data you've shown.
 

Yes, it's a Windows XP machine with Service Pack 2 installed.

I added an exception for port 22 in Firewall options; anyway 
I could have done some mistakes so I ask you to explain me, 
please, the correct procedure to allow foreing incoming 
through port 22.

RE: Possible bash incompatibility - update

2005-04-18 Thread Arash Partow
Sorry the script should have been:
#!/bin/bash
if [ `uname -s | grep -c 'CYGWIN'` -eq 1 ]; then
printf Target platform is Win32 via CYGWIN\n;
else
printf Target platform is NOT Win32 via CYGWIN\n;

Still the same error message etc...

 I still have the following problems :

   Just one possibility.  It might be the same problem, or it might
 not. 
 
   Start a bash shell.  Unless your install is really badly
 damaged, this should still work.
 
   cd into /etc/postinstall.
 
   Is there a file there called d.sh?  If so, that's going
 to have been causing setup to crash when it tries to handle
 it.  Execute it directly (enter ./d.sh), then rename it with mv
 d.sh d.sh.done. 
 
   After that setup should be able to complete.
 
   In fact, if even your bash shell won't work, use a dos
 prompt to rename it, then you can run it manually after your
 setup has completed by using . /etc/postinstall/d.sh.done

 Can't think of a witty .sigline today


(This may or may not be related to your issue...) I also noticed on the
last update I did that some/all of the packages for ?LaTex? were
updated -- and that the post-install script (post-texmf.sh) took a VERY
long time to complete --- i.e. system looked like it was hung, but was
actually ?building? a lot of postinstall stuff.  This was on a slower
processor machine ~400mhz -- WAG is it took about 8-10 minutes.  I kept
thinking setup was hung -- ended up cancelling it and running
post-texmf.sh by hand ( I also had to comment out line 11, kept getting
permission denied on removing ~/web2c/*.*fmt).

sshd failure (openssh 4.0p1-1)

2005-04-18 Thread somian-cyg
Dear Maintainers / All,

SYNOPSIS:

The Cygwin sshd seems to have developed an aversion to, uh, working, with the 
latest release, 4.0p1-1. Previous to a recent update via setup.exe, it was
working fine. I can still connect the client to any remote host.

 Hi all,

 Could someone tell me why the piece of bash script below is being
 rejected as being erroneous on cygwin but works fine on other bash's
 ie: linux and openbsd?

I would imagine because the output of uname -s doesn't contain CYGWIN
on either Linux or OpenBSD, so grep -c outputs a 0.  But even on Cygwin
this works (as Brian already confirmed).

 my current version of bash is update (2.05b).

 #!/bin/bash

 if [ `uname -s | grep -c 'CYGWIN'` -eq 1 ]; then

FWIW, a better test would be

if uname -s | grep -q 'CYGWIN'; then ...

 printf Target platform is Win32 via CYGWIN\n;
 else
 printf Target platform is NOT Win32 via CYGWIN\n;
 fi

 error message:
 bash-2.05b$ ./test.sh
 ./test.sh: line 3: [: too many arguments
 Target platform is NOT Win32 via CYGWIN
 bash-2.05b$

You could try set -x to see the actual command that is executed...  It
could be due to some stderr output from either uname or grep.
In any case, other than the output of uname containing CYGWIN (i.e.,
changes in data), none of the above is Cygwin-specific.

Note: On CPAN there is a newer libwin32-0.24 release which has less 
patches and cygwin enhancements than this package.
It merely collided with the overlong review period of 
perl-libwin32-0.191-4. Of course an update for libwin32-0.24 is in the 
works, but this time with official sanctus upstream. Discussion happens 
in the fresh libwin32@perl.org list. The old ActiveState list dead.

Not Berkely spice, but I've gotten gnucap to work fine, though IIRC it needs
an .exe added to one of it's config files.  Why in the [EMAIL PROTECTED]@$ 
don't people
just use the autotools and be done with it?

why $HOME/.bashrc is not picked up?

2005-04-18 Thread lin q
Hi,
 I just installed latest cygwin on my WinXP, I can run command and do some 
usual stuff, but I found that .bashrc is not picked up in opening a new 
shell. Here is the file,

  set prompt=%/% 
  set autolist
  set -o vi
  cd $HOME
  alias vi=vim
  echo hahaha
  
 I can not see hahaha when I run cygwin.bat to open a new cygwin window.
 I am sure HOME is set as I add the following line to cygwin.bat,
   echo %HOME%
 and I see the correct path.
 Then I wonder why else might be wrong here?
Thanks.

~/.bashrc is not read for interactive login shells.  man bash, section
INVOCATION.

The typical thing to do if you want .bashrc to be read for both login
and non-login shells is to place something like [ -f ~/.bashrc ]  .
~/.bashrc in ~/.bash_profile.

Hi,
 I am trying to change the path prefix from /cygdrive to / and I tried the 
following commands,

mount --change-cygdrive-prefix /
mount -s --change-cygdrive-prefix /
 but neither works!
  There is no error code returns, but cd /c returns error and I have to 
use cd /cygdrive again.

  You see anything wrong?
Thanks.
