Re: emacs

[Frank Esposito <fpesposito at gmail dot com>]

Hello --

Thanks for the info on the strace command

what I found is that at first, emacs was trying to load

cyghogweed-2.dll

but what was in the bin directory was

cyghogweed-2-2.dll

I tried to rename this, but that did not work, so I copied
cyghogweed-2.dll from another install of cygwin

then it stoped again looking for

cygnettle-4.dll

but

cygnettle-4-4.dll

was in the bin directory -- I just copied
cygnettle-4.dll to the bin directory and  now emacs stated --

what would be the best way fix this? are these dll's part of the emacs package?

thanks

fpe
