Slightly off-topic, but I'd be really interested to hear of your alternatives to Cygwin. Having to install the whole cygwin framework is a pain, but I do like having ruby, irb, openssh, latex, and all the usual GNU tools available through a _bash_ shell on Windows. Do you have this kind of setup ? How do you achieve it ? With MS Services for UNIX ? Chris -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
