What happens if you do:
$ mintty --icon=/Cygwin.ico -
works!
I suspect this is related to an issue reported before with the hippo
icon (I assume it's the one Chuck mentioned in a previous email?). I
don't remember the exact details, but I remember Vista
Bravo!

Just installed 1.7.1. Bravo, again.
Everything seems to be working okay, but every time I start up a Mintty/Bash
window I get the following
error message.
-bash: regtool: command not found
Shortcut is:
C:\_0\bin\mintty.exe --icon=c:\_0
Is that correct?

I've tried all manner of command option permutations with 'chere'

Does anybody know or care that there is an option --
'-a' -- for 'which' -- that is not documented on
Cygwin. That is, there is no internal help, and there
is no 'man' or 'info' page provided by Cygwin install.
If anybody wants this, I will find or create the 'man'
page and make it cover '-a',

This is a new config on Vista (Vastly Invasive Security
Tormenting All? ;-) )
After having done a 'makewhatis':
$ apropos sort
yields:
sort: nothing appropriate
Also, while the man page says the complete manual can be
found with:
$ info sort
It actually only finds the
'makewhatis ('whereis' and 'apropos' database setup script) generates
the following errors:
$ makewhatis

gzip: /usr/share/man/man1/./wput.1.gz: invalid compressed data--length error

Have you tried?: Explorer / Right click dir or drive / Properties /
Security / edit_appropriate_user_appropriately /...? I've just spent
two weeks fighting through similar problems with Vista that I never had
with XP. I'm not sure whether the problem was Vista or the config the
vendor put on
Has anyone gotten gm[.exe] to work on Vista?
I keep getting pop-up Windows boxes saying gm has stopped working ...
with of course Vistas favorite non-functioning toggle switch line about
trying to find a solution, blah, blah, blah, blah.
