I had never problems with the Cygwin32 (CDK, not usertool package) tar and gzip utils. << Well, to be precise, on my homebox it's also the CDK, but at work I use the usertools. Someone else already pointed out that I should use the tar -z option instead of piping through gzip - this cured the tar/gzip problem. The zip/unzip problem persists, however. My setup is plain vanilla, AFAIK: - Boot drive is C:, NT4 %SYSTEMDRIVE% is D: - Installed the CDK to D:/Win32App/Tools/Cygnus - created D:/tmp and D:/bin and copied sh.exe to /bin - downloaded the InfoZip ported to CygWin from http://www.i21.com/~tjump/files/index.html - put the binaries to the Cygnus/B19/H-i386.../bin dir. Just an example of what happens: Markus@~/Programmieren/Projekt/Tricarb#zip tricarb *.cpp Hlp/*.bmp adding: stdafx.cpp zip warning: file size changed while zipping stdafx.cpp s=123, actual=122 zip error: Internal logic error (incorrect compressed size) Any clues?
