It looks a bit copyright to me. So I googled the q number. Found it in a couple of places. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;90493 http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.3/tcsh-44/tcsh/win32/globals .c Oh dear. Word-for-word copying of M$ proprietary source into an open source project? TCSH-L added. I dunno what the status is of SDK source code examples but it's certainly M$ copyright; someone should look at the licensing terms. http://www.mit.edu/afs/athena/astaff/project/aui/src/third/mc/pc/util_win32. c There's a different way of doing it, just frex. Opening a file and reading a few bytes out of a couple of structs is something that can be done in standard posix C without even breaking a sweat. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/
