Re: cygwin


Jerry,

You are having a problem with LINE, not Cygwin.  This is off-topic for
this list.  You may have better luck trying a LINE mailing list, or
contacting the LINE developer: http://line.sourceforge.net/contact.php

This doesn't mean you're not welcome to submit a question to this list
that's related to Cygwin...
