Understood. In the larger scheme of things, I think this qualifies as a 'me too', so hopefully we can quell the flow of similar such messages by simply stating that this sentiment is now 'registered' with the list and saved in the email archive. I believe there are 'big plans' for setup moving forward and it would surprise me if keeping the download directory tidy is not one of them. However, I will state what's probably obvious to everyone by now - patches are welcome! :-) Larry Hall [EMAIL PROTECTED] RFK Partners, Inc. http://www.rfk.com 838 Washington Street (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office Holliston, MA 01746 (508) 893-9889 - FAX -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
