I'm not saying it can't happen, > but it seems unlikely at the moment. Why unlikely? That is exactly what is the case, if you are running the current alpha build of Windows 10. It's also worth noting that although "setup* -q -P " still pops up the familiar status display, it runs from the command line without requiring any attention. The only problems are the possibility of an elevated-privilege popup (no worse than being asked for a sudo password) and the fact that the install runs detached, so you cannot have a script that installs something before going on unless you take special pains to wait for the installation to complete. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan cowan@ccil.org I Hope, Sir, that we are not mutually Un-friended by this Difference which hath happened betwixt us. --Thomas Fuller, Appeal of Injured Innocence (1659) -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
