Re: Ctrl+C is sometimes ignored on Windows Terminal

If you're running things from under Windows Terminal, rather than the Cygwin terminal, the behavior is likely going to be inconsistent or unpredictable (and things like interrupts may be handled at a lower level within the terminal, first, before passing to a higher level and received by Cygwin).

Re: A Bug related to ImageTk in Python on Cygwin

I'll just throw out the obvious "is it plugged in" type question... but, are we to assume you have a fully functional X Server and Client working on your Cygwin install? Any particular desktop/window manager? Have you tried others? Did you compile it yourself, or did you install the package

Re: Terminator 2.0

This developer seems to have taken on the role as "main distributor," rather than making this a simple Python module that's distributed through the likes of PyPy. Judging from the number of "unsupported" distributions/versions in their list,

Re: cloc: hashbang header has "perl" twice

Replying to add the package maintainer, as-per Cygwin's source distribution files. This would be something I'd consider installing directly from source, though it looks like the upstream may not make that *quite* as easily as one would like... but, I'll take a better look, after I've slept

Re: cloc: hashbang header has "perl" twice

Looking at the current Cygwin source, the she-bang is actually: #!/usr/bin/env perl ...which means it's going to pick up the first perl interpreter in your path. You can confirm this in the cloc code, itself, as well.

Re: Missing Python.h

I am NOT saying there's a problem having "both" versions installed at the same time... I am merely pointing out that, apparently, you have a chicken and egg type issue, likely coming down to "which symlink" is created for /usr/bin/python ... and more specifically, if it points to version 2, or

Re: Missing Python.h

First off, this *probably* isn't a Cygwin problem ... but it looks like your environment is confused as it's using BOTH Python2 and Python3 modules to try to fulfill the requirements (including resources that have already been cached). For the most part, pip and pip3 can differentiate, but

List Admins - Can one of you powerful folks, please, fix the signup approvals and make it a bit more difficult to signup and account that is "allowed" to post on this list? Generally, it's at least an email verification loop. But, maybe it's time to induce an "age" as well? That said, I will

Re: virtualenv 20.2.2-1 dependencies: filelock and distlib

Well, it's been a hot minute since I've used virtualenv, by itself... but, generally you're going to want to use "mkvirtualenv" and related tools to create and then access your Python libraries (often under the projects 'venv' directory).Your mileage may vary, trying to invoke it directly from the

Re: Incorrect expansion of a program argument that is a special character?

Note that Powershell and BASH wildcard (globbing) may be notably different, which includes how items may be "escaped" to prevent such globbing operations. Moreover, in a UN*X shell, it is generally thought that it's the user's responsibility to declare how how file expansion should work,

Re: bug in cygwin tar reading unexpected input(s)...

I think we need more context, here... as what does Windows versus Cygwin think those permissions are...??? Are you running your terminal, as you... or did you run it as Administrator? Have you run an update, and not rebooted? There should be some "basic shell debugging" done here, first...

Cygwin now on Python 3? What about Mercurial?

Cygwin Enthusiasts! Well, I was going to hold back on this one, but having now watched the list for a bit, I think this is a fair question (feel free to smack me if I'm feeling too entitled, albeit maybe a bit on the rambling side). TLDR; Cygwin 64 Mercurial (5.5.1) blows chunks with default
