My changes were simple - I used the setuptex file that came with standalone, and tweaked it ever so slightly.
So basically all you did was replacing platform detection with platform="mswin" and commented out three lines of code that notify about the change? (Did you just find those lines annoying or did they actually fail to work?) Just curious: what does uname -s uname -m return on cygwin or what is the best way to detect windows in "shell"? (I believe that should be easy enough.) [Bill Meahan] UWIN is available here: http://www2.research.att.com/~gsf/download/ The site doesn't seem to be up on weekends, though. Open Source with Eclipse license. On my system which is a Athlon 64 X2 (dual core) running Vista (32 bit), uname -s gives UWIN-VI uname -m gives i1586 echo $SHELL gives /usr/bin/ksh Would probably want to do a leading match on the "UWIN" and a trailing match on the "86" parts since the rest will vary based on cpu and operating system edition.
