Mo, can you please check the snapshot dated 2002.07.30?

BTW, with the snapshot I uploaded yesterday, the occurrence of this
should have been minimized.  The default heap size is now 2M.  Can you
please verify that is the case?

Re: [Mingw-msys] MSYS 1.08 - rxvt dies if left running overnight

[Luke Dunstan <coder_infidel@ho...>]

Yes, pwd was changed here:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=1456489

And was reverted soon after:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=1483533

The file MSYS-1.0.7-changes.rtf explains that a -W switch was added to 'pwd'
to allow Win32 paths to be output.

Re: [Mingw-msys] MSYS 1.08 - rxvt dies if left running overnight

[Mike Thomas <miketh@br...>]

Thanks Earnie.

Is it deliberate that in MSYS1.08 "pwd" has reverted to it's pre 1.07
behaviour of returning Posix path names instead of Windows style  ie
"/c/junk" instead of "c:/junk"?

Cheers

Mike Thomas.
