Thanks very much for working on all this and contributing it. I will build and test as soon as I can. I need to research the packaging steps because I intend to ITA this package. I do also want to take another look at the other programs built as part of --enable-schedutils; they might (or might not) build cleanly but AFAIK there's no support within Cygwin and/or Windows for what they can do on Linux. Thanks again, ..mark
