Because, as you've demonstrated amply downthread, the people making the most noise about how incompetent the original poster was for asking this question about Cygwin are the ones least qualified to have an opinion about this stuff, and are actually making Dave Korn (who was at least funny and who clearly does know what he's talking about) look worse.

But if you know how to use The Google, you can actually find code of mine that does this. I doubt very highly you can say the same thing.



Really I don't know you before this thread. I did what you asked and googled "thomas ptacek" and here are some of the result on the first page.
