Yes, I got what you meant. I think that bypassing Cygwin, assuming you can do something good enough is a remarkably bad idea. But, anyway, if there was something in Cygwin, it would be documented. Otherwise, I doubt that anyone outside of the cygwin developers understands the stat() code well enough to come up with a patch. cgf -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
