Re: [Devel] FT2 + cygwin

Hi Karsten,

I have not approved your message to the devel list, because the
joined file is about 200 Kb !!

Anyway, thanks,

I'm not so sure..

Actually, I know some people who have created a /usr/bin directory on their
Windows partition to cope with stupid Unix programs that were ported to that
platform too, so just checking for this might break things for them..

At least, "/sbin/init" seems to be a good choice..

It's been a long time since I didn't run a BeOS shell, can someone
confirm us that this won't break things on this platform too ??

I'll have a look at your changes tomorrow, I'm a bit to busy for
now.

Cheers,

- David
