I have a new Windows-7 machine and one of the first things I downloaded was Cygwin, making sure to include a2ps and ps2pdf. Unlike the flawless running (after diddling $HOME/.a2ps/a2psrc) I had under my previous XP box, This one is misbehaving: It does nothing visible, even for a2ps --version. Observe: +--------------------------------+ | Jake@Maxwell ~$ a2ps --version | | Jake@Maxwell ~$ echo $? | | 127 | +--------------------------------+ Error 127? What's wrong? According to errno.h: #define EISCONN 127 /* Socket is already connected */ I already know from the cygwin setup that this is a2ps release 4.13. Has a2ps gotten too smart and started messing with sockets? if so, is there an option in a2psrc I can mess with to make remove this obstruction? Thanks for any useful advice here. -- JS Note: If I could have found a forum on a2ps alone I would have posted this there. -- To contact me, do not use [Reply]; Use jakesalomon at yahoo dot com -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
