Included in Debian stable http://packages.debian.org/bool Jari sdesc: Utility for matching boolean queries in text or html files ldesc: A utility for finding files that match a boolean expression. It supports AND, OR and NOT as well as the NEAR operator for locating two expressions within a short distance from each other.

Re: Using XWin.exe to connect to a linux X Server
Hi, DISPLAY on the Linux box must be set to the IP address of the cygwin box. H... But DISPLAY on the cygwin box must be set to either localhost or the IP address of this machine. Ok, this one was set to d-tuxedo, which I did not change. But I just set it back to localhost:0.0 and still happens. You also must have some method to communicate between both machines. I always used telnet as it was all locally done. You can also take SSH if you do not know who else listens between. I do. I am able to connect to d-tuxedo through ssh, etc. I just want to use X with cygwin to get to it.

Re: cp.exe chunk size
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 According to skelker on 11/30/2007 2:23 PM: Hi, Is there a reason that cp.exe uses 8KB chunk sizes to copy files? This behavior leads to very fragmented files, especially when copying large files. This has been brought up before, if you want to search the archives for posix_fallocate. The problem is not with cp.exe, but with the way that the POSIX read/write functions are implemented on top of Windows system calls in cygwin1.dll. When cygwin 1.7.0 comes out, I will be experimenting with using posix_fallocate to see if that can reduce the fragmentation.

[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: nasm-2.00-1
Version 2.00-1 of nasm has been uploaded, and should be available on the cygwin mirrors in the near future. Please find it under the Devel category in cygwin's setup utility. This release constitutes a major revision of the upstream stable sources. From http://nasm.sf.net/ : After 7 months of intense development, the NASM team brings you NASM 2.0!!! This version of NASM supercedes version 0.98.39 (and Apple's 0.98.40) and introduces full 64-bit (x86-64/x64/AMD64/Intel 64) architecture and object file support. We have also addressed quite a few bugs and feature requests along the way. Special note: I have removed support for the GNUWin32 COFF format (-f gnuwin32 option). This format was introduced to work around historical disagreements between MinGW interpretation, Microsoft implementation, and the COFF/PE specifications of the VirtualSize field for .bss section headers. These have been (reportedly) resolved in binutils since 2003. Please use -f win32 now in contexts where -f gnuwin32 was used. If you get link errors, such as ld: PE operations on non PE file, when linking nasm objects produced with nasm -f win32, and you are using the latest version of Cygwin's binutils, please send a report to the cygwin mailing list.

big enormous shell script - to remotely execute .exes on machines
Hi all: I need to write a shell script that does the following: * Takes a list of machines by IP address and mounts the C$ share * For each of these machines, executes an .exe on the *remote* host, not the machine I am running the script from. I am not sure if this is even possible; these machines do not have the cygwin dll or environment on them. * This executable causes the remote thin clients to reboot into write filter enable mode - which allows changes to be made. It needs to sleep for about 5 minutes after the last machine has the remote .exe executed. * After the sleep, it needs to (re) mount each machine's C$ share and copy an identical set of files over to each directory. I think the kicker here is having the .exe run on the *remote* machine, not the local one. Anyone know if this is possible ?

This means you either missed a dependent variable or that your script relies on some other aspect of your environment that you don't get by default through cron. For example, 'crond' run as a service which, unless you've set it it up to run as you (which is an option of the 'cron-config' setup script), it's running as the SYSTEM.

It mentioned that if I am a network user I should use mkpasswd and mkgroup with the -d flag. What is this giving me over just saying mkpasswd -l? All I see is it creating massive passwd and group files. It gathers information from the domain controller and adds it to these files. This should include all domain users and groups. This can be overkill but the good thing is that if it doesn't complain in the process or take way too long to generate, it just works. Also, I saw that my home dir in my /etc/passwd is somewhere that doesn't exist on a network server. Can I safely just change it to a local /home/user dir? Assign it to whatever you like. See the '-p' flag on 'mkpasswd'. Or just edit the '/etc/passwd' file afterward. Be careful not to change you user's SID info though. Lastly, I see that some of my files have a group of Users and others have Domain Users, how can I easily set all my files to the same group?

Well this is definitely a regression somewhere. Its not on the gfortran side which has not touched that file for several months. It could be something broke in the configure for cygwin.

Re: big enormous shell script - to remotely execute .exes on machines
airzonk wrote: Hi all: I need to write a shell script that does the following: * Takes a list of machines by IP address and mounts the C$ share * For each of these machines, executes an .exe on the *remote* host, not the machine I am running the script from. I am not sure if this is even possible; these machines do not have the cygwin dll or environment on them. * This executable causes the remote thin clients to reboot into write filter enable mode - which allows changes to be made. It needs to sleep for about 5 minutes after the last machine has the remote .exe executed. * After the sleep, it needs to (re) mount each machine's C$ share and copy an identical set of files over to each directory. I think the kicker here is having the .exe run on the *remote* machine, not the local one. Anyone know if this is possible ?

RE: configure command does not run.... d2u does not help either... appreciation from Dave
Hi, I am a new user to cygwin and even to unix. I am trying to compile a package called meep by means of cygwin. While running the configure command I get an error as: ./configure: line 13: $'r': command not found Guess #1: Don't use WinZIP (or any other windows GUI program) to unpack .tar.gz files for Cygwin, because they mangle the line ends from LF to CRLF. Use tar xvzf meep-0.10.1.tar.gz in a bash shell instead. Dear Dave, I owe you a big appreciation.

More questions about mkgroup and mkpasswd
So yesterday when I installed cygwin I got an error about my group being mkgroup and that it should be rebuilt. It mentioned that if I am a network user I should use mkpasswd and mkgroup with the -d flag. What is this giving me over just saying mkpasswd -l? All I see is it creating massive passwd and group files. Also, I saw that my home dir in my /etc/passwd is somewhere that doesn't exist on a network server. Can I safely just change it to a local /home/user dir? Lastly, I see that some of my files have a group of Users and others have Domain Users, how can I easily set all my files to the same group? I literally just installed Cygwin, so I have no problem reinstalling to get it right from the beginning, if there is a better way to install Cygwin when you are on a domain.

cp.exe chunk size
Hi, Is there a reason that cp.exe uses 8KB chunk sizes to copy files? This behavior leads to very fragmented files, especially when copying large files. --skelker -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/cp.exe-chunk-size-tf4924593.html#a14093712 Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

I'm thinking along the same lines. While that breaks backward compatibility, I'm not overly concerned in case of applications which have never been ported to a newer Cygwin version the last 10 or so years. But we do have a fairly transparent way of dealing with this problem which will allow any ancient apps to continue to work.
