Yeah, they don't have a -talk list so I brought it here. But it's not as funny without the context; sorry 'bout that. When you have to explain a joke...it's not funny. But, here's the explanation: the OP's first message was this: > How does one use MinGW's strip.exe? If I just type "strip mydll.dll", > strip gives me error: > > C:\MinGW\bin\strip.exe: unable to rename 'mydll.dll'; reason: File > exists" But the title was as stated...which just stuck me as very amusing. -- Chuck
