See below for a list of changes. NOTE: this version requires Cygwin 1.5.3, and *will not* work with earlier versions of Cygwin. If you still use Cygwin 1.3.22 (although why you'd want to is beyond me), install wtf-0.0.4-3. wtf(6) is a utility provided by some UNIX and UNIX-like systems including Slackware Linux and NetBSD. It translates acronyms and filename suffixes by looking up the definition of a term in various databases. I've added the OLOCA () to the database directory, so the acronyms from the Cygwin lists will be found (yes, you can now really ask "wtf is cgf" ;-) ). There's a perl script in the source package to update the OLOCA database from the web version of the OLOCA for those who can't wait for regular package updates (also requires wget). See the README file for details. Changes since 0.0.4-3: - Fixed wtf crash when datafile is missing (reported in ) - Compiled against Cygwin 1.5.3 - Moved documentation to /usr/share Changes since 0.0.4-2: - Fixed wtf crash when searching past the last record in a file (reported in ) Changes since 0.0.4-1: - Fixed manpage to eliminate nroff warnings Changes since 0.0.3-1: - New "os" and "companies" databases - New "wtfdump" utility to print the contents of databases - Use $WTFPATH (if defined) to find databases - New command line "-a" flag that returns all matches - Synced the OLOCA database to the web version To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system. Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "Publishing" or "Graphics" and then click on the appropriate field until the above announced version number appears if it is not displayed already. If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing list at: cygwin at cygwin dot com . I would appreciate it if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly. This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general. If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list is the appropriate place. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
