If you need a modern version, and that is a good idea.. setup.exe, downloadable from www.cygwin.com installs a newer version, that contains cygwin1.dll | Can I continue to work without cygwin1.dll or it is a must. If you don't need new stuff.. | I compile: | | % g++ helloworld.cpp -o hello | | what I get is hello.exe ( why an *.exe extention when I am working in a | unix like environment?) Because you are not on a unix-system.. you are on a windows-system. If you run gcc on a VAX(?) you also will get a .exe on the end.. /Andy -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
