Maybe serial support? What about fixing the "Cygwin deadlocks due to broken select() when writing to pipes" bug? http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-10/msg01807.html This has been biting us here, especially when using rsync over ssh, and I do not think we are alone. This is a clear deficiency in Cygwin, although not trivial to fix (especially using documented Win32 pipe interfaces) or we would have fixed it ourselves. - Pat -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
