puttycyg, emacsw32 and cygwin

[Bryan Karsh]

Hi guys,

I updated Cygwin, and now puttycyg doesn't work. I suspect I have two
copies of cygwin1.dll floating around, or maybe some environmental
conflicts. I know that puttycyg doesn't work out of the box with 1.7,
but I was using a modified version shown here:
http://code.google.com/p/puttycyg/issues/detail?id=16

Not sure if anyone has any general tips.

Also, kind of a weird question -- anyone use emacsw32 with cygwin? I
configured it so that it works with cygwin, and I like using the
shell. Is there a way to use that as a fully working shell, and not a
pseudo-terminal?

I am self-schooled on all this stuff, so I won't be offended if I am
schooled for not using the right terminology.

-Bryan

You need to ask this question to whomever supports puttycyg, presumably
at the above location.  It's not a Cygwin package and, so, this is not
the mailing list for puttcyg support.

  On the other hand, we do have generic advice for the "may have two copies of
cygwin1.dll floating around" problem.

  Run cygcheck as described there.  No need to send it to the list in this
instance, but a quick browse through will show you exactly how many cygwin
dlls it found on your system and where they are, and you can get rid of any dups.

Nevertheless I'll just state that that's the version of puttycyg that I
use, and it works fine for me with the latest Cygwin 1.7.
