When I try to compile hdirect on cygwin on my NT I get a lot of complaints from ghc about bad tokens. Particularly the use of "\" to continue a line. For some reason it doesn't see it as the line continuation character. Also, it compiled ok on a different machine but it complains about a missing link to CYGWIN1.DLL when I try to do anything. Any help would be appreciated. Eric Wohlstadter

You need to make sure that the files are mounted as binary rather than as text, or vice versa. Try the cygwin `mount' command. -- Fergus Henderson <fjh@cs.mu.oz.au> | "I have always known that the pursuit | of excellence is a lethal habit" WWW: <http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~fjh> | -- the last words of T.
