Hello Jan,
I see you found my new 1.27 CVS code. I'm=20
pleased to hear that the attributes are now=20
working correctly.
Can you tell me what Windows system is corrupting
the binary files? I have carefully tested it here on
Win98, and after restoring large binary files, I have
successfully executed them, so it is working
for me. I suspect this is some crazy Windows or
cygwin incompatibility.
Another question: do you have any other version of cygwin
loaded on any of your Windows machines? If this is the
case, it could cause these problems. I have not been
able to upgrade to the latest cygwin because it is
too unstable (an unstable program on top of an unstable
operating system gives me nightmares).
Best regards,
Kern
PS: I recommend you respond directly to me rather than
the list as most users probably won't be interested=20
in these details. If someone on this list wants to
be copied on this discussion, no problem, please
let me know.
