Re: Diff of dirs invokes Dr. Watson


Ah ha! That gave me the clue I needed. I checked the path and found
*no* cygwin in it. A little more detective work turned up a diff.exe in
some other directory, and a quick check of the strings inside indicated
it's linked to the VC++ runtime.

I have cygwin installed, but must have taken it out of the path at some
point. *That* diff doesn't crash.

Thanks for getting me pointed in the right direction!
