An updated version of zsh has been released and should be at a mirror
near you real soon.

This version has a few fixes from the Zsh team.  It is also the last of
the 4.0 version tree of zsh.

Note: this release of zsh 4.0.7 has been compiled with cygwin 1.5.3 -
therefore you should be using a version no older then this version of
cygwin if you want it to work.

Other changes include:

- files are now installed according to the Filesystem Heirachy Standard
(FHS) (meaning documentation is under /usr/share)


To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your system.  Once
you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "Editors"  and then click on
the appropriate field until the above
announced version number appears if it is not displayed already.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin mailing
list at:  cygwin at cygwin dot com .  I would appreciate it if you would use
this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.  This includes ideas and
comments about the setup utility or Cygwin in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.

Not in the cygwin mailing list...  This typo has probably caused at least one
brain aneurysm for someone who was trying to edit their files via zsh.

Ah, but you *can* edit your files via zsh's zle editor... it's just,
kinda, you know, difficult to do... and saving it afterwards might be a
bit of trouble too... but you get the added bonus of seeing if it'll
execute correctly (you, ah, *did* want to execute your document, didn't
you?  'case if not, why are you editing it with zsh in the first place!? P-b

Ummm... sorry for the mess?

Hmmm... I might be able to use zsh's auto-completion functions to
reconstruct your "document" ...ummm... maybe not...

Gosh, Igor, it's not my fault if his using zsh to edit his documents,
trying to execute them, caused his head to explode... after all... I'm
just the porter for zsh... :)  (I'll shuddup now...)
