Hi,
I was testing the latest 1.7 DLL snapshot (1.7.2s(0.218/5/3) 20091209
12:02:30) and the current 1.7 one (that you get from setup-1.7.exe). I
am starting zsh and get the following error: "zsh: failed to create hard
link as lock file /home/thorsten/.zhistory.LOCK: operation not
permitted".
This relates to the following setting in .zshrc: "HISTFILE=~/.zhistory".
Zsh starts but no history is available. Cygwin is located on a FAT32
thumb drive.
Bash does not exihibit the error.
Thorsten
