The interesting = thing is, the lex.t alone script will run without any problems. So I = think the problem is somewhere in cygwin.dll. If anybody wants to check = this out, my perl5.003 .exes are available at: http://www.edv.agrar.tu-muenchen.de/~syring/gnu-win32/perl.zip Regards Karl - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
