OK, I find it really useful, find+grep in particular have saved me so much
time, but I know what you mean, I 'only' use cygwin for the dev tools (as
above) and don't use it for live code or on live boxes. It's also easier not
to have to go through the paperwork to get approval for putting on a server
:-)
I was thinking that maybe po2xml could be built under cygwin with the gcc
-mno-cygwin option so it wouldn't require the cygwin1.dll - i.e. you then
have a native winodws executable. Only one person would then need cygwin.
The KDE stuff was just in case it made life easier. I'm not a c/c++ person
these days (not for 20 years) but I was thinking about compiling with either
the VC++ toolkit, MinGW or gcc/cygwin as likely options for KDE sourced
tools with VC++ being the least likely, AFAIUI KDE would be built with gcc
using the QT libraries.
Sorry for the noise,
Bill
