Volunteers to get that working would likely be well received! Package maintainer basics are at http://www.cygwin.com/packages.html, although I expect the key job would be getting the current code building on Cygwin; once it's built and working, the packaging steps are much more straightforward… -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation:https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
Cygwin tool to differ junctions from soft links?
Good morning! Does Cygwin have a command line tool (Scriptable!) which can be used to differ between soft links and Windows junctions?
