Y'all left out the part that you have not changed setup

I have been very happy with the cut and paste and other
features with RXVT. Its been a while since I set mine

Its cool having the same feel of the Unix three button mouse

OK, that explains the bevavior of the Cygwin window when I do
not use rxvt. Cool, thanks.
Now, you said:

This is true if I do not use RXVT, it is not true if I do.
With rxvt, I can use the mouse to resize the window, in both

I noted in running setup today that GSL-1.3 was there.
Thanks! I know building that library takes some time.
I appreciate it! I use GSL a good deal for random

I know that I can use my mouse to directly resize the rxvt window,
by grabbing and dragging with my mouse. Thats why I like it. Works

Hmmm, my results are pretty much the opposite. In Win2000,
I can only resize the window in the vertical direction. In
Win98SE I could only resize it very slightly, if at all.
This is true (for me) in
rxvt was WELL worth the price of admission for two reasons (for me)
(1) Having a window that I can resize just about any bloody way I want,
not limited by what Windows wants to give me, with a nice, flexible

(2) Being easily able to set things up where I could use the left, middle

Well, in your code:

I see one thing wrong. The cout functions name comes from
the standard namespace, so you either have to add:
using namespace std;
or qualify the name, i.e.
std::cout

Max Bowsher made a very important point from a diagnostic point,
he said:
"Run the command "gcc -v" and post the output."
This may give a tipoff if something is wrong with your gcc install.
Also run:

and whether there

The fact that you have the contrib and latest directories implies

Another useful skill on finding what is where, is the

This can be useful in determining where something is.

I feel doubly stupid. I haven't got a clue about the issues of policies or

Is there a reason why base Cygwin still uses 2.95.3 of
gcc, other than you have about 50 x 10^9 other
more important things to do than deal with the

things up for Cygwin?
Thanks,
