Yeah, this is one of the coolest things to show up in cygwin-apps in a while. I don't have time to play with it now but I can't wait to start bragging about this capability. :-) I agree that this is one of those packages that should be as simple as possible to install so if we can get something like Corinna's scripts that probably is a good thing. I guess this means that my previous enthusiastic "Let's just ship it!" should be tempered by a "Let's make sure that it is easy to install". I suspect that this means we delay while we get the usual (&(*& Windows 9x stuff worked out. cgf
