You forget that the users use what tools they have, but if something better
comes along, they replace them. You've been given good advice here by
multiple users, and reasons why, and you've responded to it with
pathological argumentation. I don't know if I can help you, but if you're
willing to set up a debate with a mediator, I'll demonstrate logic to you.

The world doesn't care about your drama. It cares about tools. I know many
people in the Open Source movement, like many in closed source development,
care about providing quality tools to their users (and many closed sourcers
give 'em away free, like EditPadLite and PuTTy). I don't know why you're
fighting the messenger instead of paying attention to the message, and I can
only assume the "the problem is between the screen and the chair."

I am a professional, and a logician, and if I seem terse, it's that I don't
take kindly to having my time wasted by people who do not understand logical
argument and are not emotionally stable enough to accept logic.

Best,

Hi Cary, thanks for your reply.  I did put -multiplemonitors options when
start xwin.exe, but it still doesn't work.  I am wandering what else I need
to config in order to make it work.

And based on traffic on this list, those reasons are usually due to buggy
or invasive drivers that inject threads into all windows programs,
interfering with cygwin's ability to map memory properly as it emulates
forks.  Try disabling your logitech webcam driver or mcafee virus scanner
(those tend to be the two biggest culprits, although there are others),
and see if it makes a difference.

You may want to try using the cygwin perl instead of ActivePerl; that may
be contributing to your issue, as ActivePerl does not respond as well to
cygwin forks.

make -j1 will also help most likely.

Re: Bash 3.1.9 and 3.2.4: igncr setting not effective for 'source'd files

Thanks for the report.  I'll investigate it, and hopefully bash-3.2-5 will
have it fixed; I need to reroll bash 3.2 anyways, since official patches 2
and 3 have been issued upstream.

convert does nothing

On my system (complete and up-to-date) the "convert" command achieves
nothing. E.g. after
	convert file1.ps file2.jpg
the prompt is almost immediately returned. No error msg. And no
file2.jpg. How is it for you?
Attached: cygcheck.out.
