OK, it's a fair cop. I should write 100 times
"I will not use a GUI unzipper instead of command-line gzip and tar"
"I will not use a GUI unzipper instead of command-line gzip and tar"
...
But while Insight looks good after actually installing the right versions of
files, this NT system refuses to run the wonderful tkinfo script that works
nicely on W95. There seems to be a problem parsing cygwin paths under NT,
independent of the tcl/tk build.
Under W95, the following was OK in a redirection script (where wish.exe ->
cygwish80.exe)
exec wish /usr/src/tkinfo/tkinfo "$@"
Under NT I have to do
cd /usr/src/tkinfo && exec wish tkinfo "$@"
and then tkinfo can't find the info files in /usr/info (not even when told
the path or file explicitly).
I'm wondering if there's an issue with any of the tcl/tk library scripts
(where I have ~0 knowledge, though I recall having to patch the earlier
gdbtcl for W95 filenames with embedded spaces).
