Cc: cygwin@cygwin.com In-Reply-To: <570DA4A1BC7DD4119AD7000629551498013E10E1@pjmnt11.pjm.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-SW-Source: 2002-02/txt/msg01431.txt.bz2 Yes. The Cywgin DLL has always gone to great lengths to support all released versions of Windows, other than CE. Other than the obvious caveats noted in the FAQ entry which I referred you to, it's safe to assume nothing more or less. Historically, the Cygwin DLL has 'worked' with whatever Windows versions were current at the time. This has certainly been true for the last 5+ years conservatively. No need to fret. It's worth noting, however, that this list only really "supports" the current release of Cygwin. So if you have an issue with 1.3.2 that you want to post, the response you're likely to get is 'does it work with 1.3.10?' David (Starks-Browning), do you think it's necessary to update this FAQ entry so that it's clear that the Cygwin DLL has historically supported the then released versions of Windows?
