Subject: that thing with the fonts and julia, and that other thing with plotutils
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2020 20:58:25 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200903205825.3d2ea011@quarternote> (raw)

Hi,


Just got a new computer at work, so it got a very fresh install of cygwin.

The problem i was having with the fonts not displaying correctly in Julia is now gone, and that's much more important than it sounds.  A great many of the julia packages, and some that I use frequently, make heavy use of unicode characters so it could be quite difficult to know what was going on.

However the segfault problem with graph is still there.

So, something in the windows set-up seems to be responsible for having broken the unicode/font display, because i was running the same version of cygwin on both machines (and both under W10).

The thing with graph segfaulting is giving the exact same behavior, so that's still a mystery.  and yes i did install both the "test" version of plotutils and the version before and both versions gave the exact same symptoms.
