Re: 1.5.24-2: Applications automatically restart on crash

set CYGWIN=proc_retry:1

is a much less intrusive way of dealing with this.

The proc_retry:1 worked great! Although, at first I didn't think it was working, because I was trying to set the CYGWIN environment variable from within the shell. For anybody else who does this (at least with rxvt), this seems to only work if you set it in the cygwin.bat file that launches the terminal. I presume the CYGWIN variable is only read once when launching the the cygwin DLL?

Thanks Chris and Dave.

Best Regards,
Chris
