Re: More pipe problems (was Re: [Fwd: 1.5.11-1: sftp performance problem])

Hi Adrian...

I thought of doing that too, or changing over when the cygwin package first 
appeared, but the native and cygwin versions behave differently regarding 
file attributes. I use the native version of unison because it uses windows 
permissions as opposed to simulated unix permissions. I synchronize 
read-only attributes between machines, but file permissions remain inherited 
from the directories.

Thnaks,

...Karl
