The script program for cygwin


Hi,

I apologise for not using the appropriate mailing-list to make this
annoucement.

I've managed to build the script program under cygwin.  It handles SIGWINCH
correctly.  As you may know, script makes a typescript of terminal session, of
everything printed on your terminal.  I usually use it to record a transcript
of what I am doing whenever I build a package -- for example, the flags that
I'd used for the configure script, make, etc.

Because I do not wish to maintain it, I am hoping someone can take over and
create a cygwin package.  If you wish to volunteer, send me an email.  Please
note that I will only be sending you a context-diff patch to the original
script.c (of the util-linux-2.12a package).  The size of the patch is 107
lines and 2335 bytes.  You would need to do the autoconf/automake and NLS
stuff as well as all other tasks to produce a cygwin package.  In particular,
your configure.in should set HAVE_grantpt in the generated defines.h file.

Regards,
fclim.
