When I gave command "rebase all", my monitor's screen got damaged. I mean 25% of screen is got Black and resizing screen is only upto 80% of total screen.. It appers as full screen sometimes and 80% screen sometimes. Now I have changed my monitor , and this new monitor is working fine. That damaged monitor is not working properly at any other machine..

Well, I'm not going to suggest it there myself, because PCYM.... is an entirely cygwin-list-specific thing. (I've noticed we have very different etiquette here from the remaining sourceware lists, all of which are much keener on quoting people's email addresses and indeed on Cc'ing everyone in the thread personally rather than keeping it to the lists and PCYMing.) So it belongs on that page even less IMO than it does in the OLOCA or FAQ. "How to configure your mailer" is indeed a generic and non-cygwin-related question, but "How to PCYM...." would be meaningless anywhere else *except* somewhere cygwin-specific. I guess the best thing is to leave it documented in the place where it already is documented: in the many many archived threads from this list where it has been mentioned, and we just have to hope people will remember to STFW when they're told to PCYM..... cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 23+ messages in thread

That's just bad manners and laziness, however. Every so often the mailing list software bounces a message because people have included everyone in a gcc thread plus the gcc mailing list itself in their replies and they trip an "excess number of senders" spam rule. Also, you will occasionally see "Don't cc me" in any of the other active lists. I actually complained about quoting email once in the gdb list, myself. In any event, I wouldn't have suggested it if I didn't think that it would receive some consideration in the overseers list. It has come up there before, IIRC. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 23+ messages in thread

Well, I'm not as certain as all that myself. It seemed to me to be just a very different culture, but maybe it's just that there isn't as much self-enforcement of community standards on those lists as there is in here? > Also, > you will occasionally see "Don't cc me" in any of the other active > lists. True. But pretty rarely as compared to how often you see it complained about here, whereas you see it *happen* an awful lot *more* often than it happens here. > In any event, I wouldn't have suggested it if I didn't think that it > would receive some consideration in the overseers list.

OK, that's something I just didn't know, so I'll reconsider. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 23+ messages in thread

Since it irreparably destroys a monitor, it's an undocumented feature for use only by those who are sure they want to damage their monitor. ;-) -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

They're synonyms, Larry. After all, damaging a monitor is usually pretty much the same thing as disabling it. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 23+ messages in thread

It's not your fault at all, you didn't do anything wrong!
