[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: mosh-1.2.4-1 (x86)

2013-11-21 Thread Reini Urban
I've updated mosh on x86 to the latest version 1.2.4, x86_64 not yet. Changes largely include bug fixes, improved robustness, and added platform support. This reinstates the original perl wrapper, as the failing perl IO::Tty module is not used anymore. See http://mailman.mit.edu/pipermail/mosh-us

I'm having a great deal of difficulty getting my programs that use curses to compile with Windows 8.1 64 bit. I've been using/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw for the header and library files.

CVS version difference, 32-bit vs 64-bit

2013-11-21 Thread Mark Hadfield
On 32-bit Cygwin the CVS package is at version 1.12.13 whereas on 64-bit Cygwin it is at 1.11.23. The latter can handle proxy servers whereas the former cannot, so I would prefer 1.12.13 on both. I note that 1.11.23 (the last stable release) is quite a lot *newer* than 1.12.13 (the last feature

I have some new information. I tried using export CYGWIN="error_start=gdb -nw %1 %2" and I was able to catch an abort in emacs-w32 that gave no abort dialog box, similar to emacs-X11 aborts. The log from GDB is given below: (gdb) continue Continuing. [Thread 5840.0x1220 exited with code 0]

Thanks for the assistance Ken, I appreciate it. I was able to uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection, so the only piece of software that I may have from the BLODA list is now NVIDIA Geforce. I took your advice about experimentation, and I discovered some more information. It turns out that Ema

Hello, I am about to create a silent install script to help automatically deploying Cygwin. Actually the target environment are machines where users don't have admin rights so Cygwin needs to be installed without administrator privileges. I see in the documentation and FAQ that the --no-admin
