Yes, Robert and I have talked about that in the past. cygipc includes them, but once cygdaemon is official I'll add them to cygutils. Currently, cygutils includes a few IPC test programs (but not ipcrm or ipcs) -- but those are only built if cygipc is installed, are are not included in "official" cygutils package since cygipc isn't official. If you can 1) give me the code -- see cygutils' HOW-TO-CONTRIBUTE document 2) also come up with an m4 macro for configure.in that I can use to detect the presence of a cygserver-capable cygwin1.dll Then I have no problems adding ipcs and ipcrm to cygutils BEFORE cygserver goes gold. --Chuck -- 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/
