Hi!
Yes, my game with archive bit wasn't good. For a now a have a new patch
(with the same idea), but it uses Extended Attributes of files to save
"executable" and "symlink" flags. This patch works on NT only (both ntfs
and fat), and does nothing on Windows 95. If anybody are interesting in
this patch, I'll post it here.
BTW, EA can be used in cygwin.dll for some other purposes. To save case
sensitive names, for example :-)
