Cygwin on symbian OS

Hi, I've been cygwin user for many years. I was thinking if there is a symbian port of cygwin. It would be exciting for me at least to run cygwin shell, other unix applications, including X windows on a handheld symbian smart phones. Has anyone tried such a port? Best Regards to all, <> --

Re: Changing interactive shell from Bash to Zsh

There is no reason to expect any improvement in mingw programs from my change. Yeah i figured that one out. ;) I was just trying to rationalize the change that I did show in the original report. My timings don't show great improvement, and a 1 second margin of error due to windows caching doe
