I always maintain the integrity of the pristine source. The FAQ on the website covers this. > (BTW: Just discovered that Insight 6.3.50 is included prebuilt in the cygwin > stuff under the gdb package as well as in the mingw downloads). Yeah -- insight *is* gdb, and as long as Chris or Corinna or one of the other in-the-knows keeps releasing gdb, the gdb package will always include insight. > Final point: Why does the Windows firewall chuck-up a message box when I > start Insight? What is Insight trying to do that should concern the > firewall? I can only think of one thing off the top of my head: IPC. Is it attempting to accept connections on port tcp/9909? If so, it's because Insight is opening a server socket which allows multiple insight instances to communicate with each other. You can disable this be unsetting "gdb/ipc/enabled" in src/gdb/gdbtk/library/prefs.tcl or in your preference file (~/.gdbtkinit or ~/gdbtk.ini). Keith
