How to expand tabs? Where is expand program.

2015-07-02 Thread Richard Heintze
There used to be a very handy cygwin program called expand for expanding tabs into spaces. Now I cannot find it on the nice installation GUI (setup_x86_64.exe). I tried searching the archives for it but there were too many hits for other topics (expand is a common word, apparently). Has

How to run debugger?

debugger is DDD, also part of Cygwin. Can't say how it compares to insight, though. Have a great day!! James E. Merritt --- Arturus Magi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Richard Heintze wrote: I remember running a GUI based source code debugger for gcc. I was very impressed. Can anyone

with that too, see my earler post. (gdb.exe started the GUI interface, but it could not load the source code file -- something to do with stat failing. chmod 777 test.c did not help). Siegfried --- Arturus Magi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Richard Heintze wrote: I remember running a GUI based source

Options for Source Code Control: RCS v. SCCS v. CVS

2004-07-10 Thread Richard Heintze
I need some help understanding how RCS works. I typed info RCS and felt confused. Is RCS like CVS in the sense that one runs a un*x deamon or windows service on a remote node and legions of programmers use a client implemented with sockets or pipes. If so, (1) how do I start the service or

How to run deamons like inetd and ftpd on Windows?

2004-07-10 Thread Richard Heintze
I typed info inetd and it says it should be run at boot time by /etc/rc (see rc(8)). What the heck does that mean? I tried info rc and that did not work. OK, I know a little about UN*X. There are these directories in rc.d and I see the cygwin installation has created them on my windows machine.

Where is the gnu/cygwin GUI Source code debugger?

2004-07-10 Thread Richard Heintze
I remember running a GUI based source code debugger for gcc. I was very impressed. Can anyone remind me of the command I used to start it? I assume I installed with cygwin, but I'm not completely certain. Does it work with g77 too? I tried typing gdb but that only brings up the old command line

propagated to Emacs. Alternatively, you could try to get Emacs to run bash -l as its shell (don't ask me how, I don't use Emacs). Igor I just checked and C:\cygwin\bin is already in the path. Any other ideas? Thanks, Sieg On Fri, 9 Jul 2004, Richard Heintze wrote: Igor

Calling g77 FORTRAN code from MSVC 7?

I've searched the web, I've looked at the FAQ. I spent all day yesterday trying to figure this out myself and I am close. I just downloaded the complete cygwin about a month ago so everything should be pretty recent. I can call my g77 code (sum.f) from g++ by creating a dll and calling the dll
