Re: Proposal: psutils (again)


Just one remark: the source package contains the patch at its root and not in 
CYGWIN-PATCHES where, AFAIK, it's supposed to be (for packages not using build 
scripts)

Other than that, I've tried out the tools in the ISO-C99 specification (nice
& big file) and found no problems :)

rlc

BTW: wouldn't it be a better idea to just add a Makefile.cygwin file? That way,
the same source pack can still be used on other OSs as well.. (Just a thought)
