http://cygwin.com/setup-snapshots/ Hallelujah, a resizable setup program. What a relief. Now if only it would recognize my mouse wheel... It depends on windows to send the appropriate messages. What OS and what mouse are you using? Win2K SP4, with a Logitech generic mouse.

Hi, I want to ask regarding Cygwin setup window size. Why it cannot switch to maximize, so we can see things more easily without need to scroll ? I suggest we can have the maximize button enabled in cygwin setup window. If not how about make it bigger so we did not need to scroll when viewing.
