Re: distributing executables for windows


Thank you very much for your info, it now works.

Just for curiosity :
1. The files in "/usr/share/terminfo/c" are identical to those in
"/usr/share/terminfo/63", but the former one does not work. What're
their differences ?
2. The "less" executable distributed by the GnuWin32 project depends
only on a single external library "libpcre", is this possible with
cygwin ?
