Lightweight, Windows-friendly Installation of Cygwin

2009-07-26 Thread Jim Monty
I use the MKS Toolkit at work. I've never really used Cygwin because every time I look at it, I run away screaming because of the gazillion choices it seems I'm forced to make, the volumes of documentation I'm forced to read, and the fact that Cygwin seems to impose whole new computing paradigms

No dice, unfortunately; I tried this and it had no effect. Checking with "stty -a" showed that swtch=undef already, and susp=^Z as you'd expect. Note it's not the *suspend* that's acting up -- I know lots of folks have had trouble getting ^Z to work properly, but there's no problem with that
