When I launch cygwin and run build.sh script, everything is fine, but I want to launch this script from batch file. I do this: &lt; at &gt;echo off F:/cygwin/bin/bash --login -c "cd F:/Projektai/osdev &amp;&amp; sh build.sh" When I launch it, I get errors *i586-elf-gcc: command not found* and *i586-elf-ld: command not found*. I can't find the solution, how can I fix it? Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/command-not-found-when-running-from-batch-tp95132.html Sent from the cygwin OT chat mailing list archive at Nabble.com. </pre> zgintasz 2012-12-31T15:48:22 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/5179 <pre>http://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/529522/854aed3fb6398b79/ cgf </pre> Christopher Faylor 2012-12-24T15:56:16 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/5176 <pre>[Well, maybe only 99.999% off-topic since I'm talking about something that I read and I'm a cygwin developer] One of my favorite comic strips is going web-only next month and the author is looking for funding: http://www.cowandboy.com/ I am going for the gold plan so I have some artwork to hang in my office. http://www.gocomics.com/cowandboy?ref=comics How cool would it be to raise enough money to have a Cygwin Hippo included in the comic?

Very few people that I know use it. It's not even on anyone's radar as something that should be done. Many email readers default to it. At NetApp, it's basically the wild west when it comes to quoting style. Some people use the tried-and-true, "just forward it back along with email headers". Some people invent their own style, like bracketing replies with their name. No one puts the quotes first and their replies after and hardly anyone (besides me) ever trims anything. Just needed to vent. Not using TOFU makes a lot of sense but I think the battle is over. cgf </pre> Christopher Faylor 2012-11-02T16:06:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/5158 <pre>https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cygwin-packages/ </pre> Christopher Faylor 2012-08-08T18:59:27 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/5153 <pre>Since I started this ... The Washington Post has a weekly column called the "Style Invitational" that features word games. As it happens, this week's (2012-07-22) report is of the results of a game where one translated a phrase from English through one or more other languages and back to English.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY: Once you have reached the "Select Packages" window, the top-most line will look something like this: +All () Default But by default, not all of Cygwin is installed. You should click the arrowed circle (or the word "Default") in the first line beside "+All" until it says "Install" instead of "Default" (one click should do it), i.e. the top line should then look like this: +All () Install This will install all of Cygwin. In the past, we have suggested a set of required packages for building or using HEASOFT, but as the contents of Cygwin packages seem to change regularly, we strongly recommend that you install everything to avoid missing any necessary items. If you experience problems during the Cygwin setup, please check the resources available at the Cygwin site: http://cygwin.com/faq/ (Cygwin FAQ) http://cygwin.com/lists.html (Cygwin mailing lists) http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/cygwin-ug-net/ (Cygwin User's Guide) http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/setup-net.html (help with setup.exe) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Heasoft is a large package but suggesting to install all cygwin seems a bit too drastic....

It'd be good to hide it. Is there any option in sourceware? I haven't tried it but i've seen some option with a mailman mailing list to hide email address though I don't know if it does. Is there any option like it with sourceware.. are they equivalent in this respect? I used to have an email account dedicated to mailing lists, with folders for each program whose mailing list I subscribed to, spam there if I got it wasn't a big deal, and when I didn't use it for some months, it got deactivated, which was maddening.. I know my main address won't get deactivated, as I check it often, though getting lots of notifications for those emails is irritating and yahoo instant messenger notifies me with new emails. A great feature but not when it notifies me each time a new post appears on a mailing list. </pre> narium85-ididapeeinitalyintotheseayipee< at >yahoo.co.uk 2012-04-03T08:18:31 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/5082 <pre>http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831568.aspx "Features Removed or Deprecated in Windows Server "8" Beta ...

Download and run setup.exe, and click "Next" at each prompt, as the user guide says, for a core install. 2. Install additional packages with the -P option. E.G.: setup -P gcc -P git -P bzr -P python etc. Adam </pre> Adam Puckett 2012-03-05T15:58:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/5067 <pre>Problem occurs when I'm trying to download/upload file from FTP server (LINUX).

It shows up good in Gmail. I'm writing via Gmail and I have enabled the "Use Unicode (UTF-8) encoding for outgoing messages" option and I'm writing a "Plain Text" message. As such, I thought I'm *safe*. I don't know if this is a shortcoming of the mailing list or Gmail ... but anyway, has anyone noticed similar behaviour? If yes, have anyone found a solution (other than using only ASCII characters in one's name)?

I've been frustrated at the lack of guidance I've found online regarding how to build an internationalized text-based Unix application, in particular with reference to handling different character sets. For example, "man" recognizes the character set specified in locale settings and uses Unicode punctuation appropriately. OTOH, the cygutils "ascii -e" utility does not recognize that my LANG specifies UTF-8 and outputs garbage for the extended half. Should this be considered a bug? Closer to a real application, how should a program that reads, processes, and outputs text detect the character set so that it can process the text correctly? In the absence of a BOM in the input file, should the program blindly presume the locale-specified character set or analyze the file to guess it? And what advice is there for guessing? And, once detected, what takes precedence for output: the input file's character set or the locale setting? I presume these issues are either settled or being debated somewhere. --Ken Nellis </pre> Nellis, Kenneth 2011-05-23T13:44:40 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.talk/4988 <pre>I expect to have little or no internet access until 27 April.

He requests some extra information. May I PM the details to any of you (or resend the mail)? Sorry for using this list. I didn't feel like posting to the main list, nor PM the Project Leaders without prior permission.
