Hi folks,

just wanted to let the world (well, the mailing list) know that Perl/Expect 
works under Cygwin.  Currently, a patch is needed for Pty.xs in the IO::Tty
package.  Just add

#ifdef __CYGWIN__
#define HAVE_DEV_PTMX
#endif

at the top of Pty.xs.  This will of course be added to the next release of
IO::Tty, but this may take a while, given my current workload.

Hope this helps,

Roland
