And, besides, your proposed solution won't work: I could, of course, use "which", or "where" to deduce the location of "svn", but what would that tell me. Assuming, I get "/usr/bin/svn", then I'd know that "which" is a CygWin binary (because it emits a CygWin path), but what's got that to do with svn? The fact that it resides in the CygWin bin directory doesn't mean it is also a CygWin binary.
If you need something more conclusive than just where 'svn' lives, you can use 'cygcheck' on the path that 'which' returns. Something like 'cygcheck $(which svn) | grep cygwin1.dll' should be sufficient. -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- 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
