I see announcement with "TEST RELEASE" in the subject. Are these the
same as the snapshots available at https://cygwin.com/snapshots/ ? I
suspect not, because there are fewer snapshots than test release

If test releases are not snapshots, where can I download them?

I notice that setfacl does not change the ACLs of a file when given a pathname
starting with a drive letter (e.g., c:/temp/zzz), but it will work when given a
UNIX-style pathname (e.g., /cygdrive/c/temp/zzz). Example below. Is this a
known problem?

Indeed. Cygwin has allowed pathnames to start with drive

Yes, this is on purpose. Use of a drive letter says that you DON'T want
POSIX path processing, therefore, you are also giving up ACL processing.
Moral of the story - don't expect drive letters to do what you want.
Use POSIX paths.
Thanks, Eric. I

You can do this in a Bash shell:

You may want to follow the above command with:

If I type e, and only the e, at the prompt, nothing appears until
I type the next character.
If I type ee, only the first one hides. The others appear normally.
This seems similar

The very concept of a non-x86 Cygwin port is meaningless nonsense. You
need to do a bit more homework. I suggest you start by reading the first

Well, an X application can display itself on a different computer, so

have my umask set to 177, but when I create a new file with touch foo,

Is there any way to use ntsec and not have all newly created files
