I agree with both of you. It is definitely a path problem, and i also agree that the cygwin bin shouldn't be in the windows path and vice versa. However, from the number of bug reports that i have received from wingaim users, it seems that it is a common practice to put the cygwin bin directory in the path (our official stance is that it is user error and that the cygwin/bin dir shouldn't be in the path as stated on the website: http://gaim.sf.net/win32/). I was just hoping that we could get the dll renamed and make this issue no longer be an issue. -D --- Frédéric_L._W._Meunier <1@pervalidus.net> wrote: > On Tue, 3 Feb 2004, Reid Thompson wrote: > > the end. i.e. when i open a cygwin terminal any > call to a cygwin > > compiled application will find the cygwin binaries > first, and vice versa > > for a windows terminal. >> I really can't see what such applications are doing. > A full > scan on the hard drive ?
