Re: MSYS' cvs freezes under Win98 [Was: Re: [Mingw-msys] CVSEDITOR var doesntwork]

[Luke D. <cod...@ho...>]

Ahhh, now it is starting to make sense :). The reason I didn't notice this
on my Win98 computer at home is because I _always_ use compression because
the connection is very slow, while at work I usually never use compression.
However, I don't know what causes the problem...
