Thanks for the speedy reply Chuck - I'm game! I did as you suggest and it sped along to some degree but of course a lot of tools weren't in the path, so I had to add /usr/bin in to the path before running the for loop Interestingly when I did, I got: /bin/bash: /etc/postinstall/base-file

Is 1.7 ready?/Installation Issues

Hi! I've been a loyal fan of cygwin for a number years, and I have the utmost respect for the effort it takes you all to continue to develop it - its a great platform. So first a big big thank you. I don't know where I'd be on my PC without cygwin. I've been running 1.7 since fairly early o

Cygwin 1.5.25, vim 7.2-3: Command 'cw' misbehaves on a block of contiguous white-spaces

VIM seems to be behaving improperly executing the 'cw' command when the cursor is positioned on a block of contiguous white-space characters. It is changing *only* the character it is positioned on (instead of changing up to the last white-space in the block). Consider the following example text

Wide Char Support

I've seen mixed messages on the web regarding wide character support (ie. wchar_t, wint_t ...) coming in Cygwin 1.7. There have been places where instructions are given on how to build. There are other places where it says 1.7 will have it built in. But I haven't found anything explicit at this
