Up for adoption: ctags and expat

I’m the current maintainer of these two packages. As it happens, I have never seriously used either under Cygwin. I only adopted ctags because it was abandoned in 2003 and was in danger of being removed from the distribution after repeated attempts to contact its maintainer in 2005 failed.

I really appreciate your looking into this problem. I use the Cygwin64 Terminal icon to create one or more windows. I set my login shell to /bin/tcsh in /etc/passwd. As you suggested, I deleted ~/.logout, and do not have an /etc/csh.logout. I also deleted ~/.login, and reduced my

I'm working on a Google-sponsored open-source project. I'd like to bundle setup-x86.exe with the project to improve usablility on our installer. The installer fetches Cygwin to enable our bash scripts to install our other dependencies and then launch App Engine runtime/installer tools. The

Hi all, This is a followup to a report back in 2011 about essentially the same issue: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-04/msg00031.html The same test program in that report demonstrates the issue, but with kill sending any non-zero signal. To reiterate, the problem here is POSIX compliance
