GNU Utilities for Win32 dead?

<< < (2/2)

urlwolf:
Cygwin is a whole emulation layer. You cannot put that in an USB drive (lots of space). It does offer some advantages, but not enough for me to justify its installation (and it is difficult to uninstall). unixtools + console2 is the way to go for me.

cygwin is... ick.

Ditto. GnuWin32 rocks...

Hmmm... I wouldn't exactly call 2 updates in as many months in 2007 and Vista testing "dead"
Check it out...

f0dder:
Hm, why have both gnuwin32 and unxutils instead of collaborating? That's a waste of resources. Nice to know about gnuwin32 though, seems pretty comprehensive :Thmbsup:
