My earlier post could be of some help here.=20
http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/mono-vb/2004-July/000153.html=20

Would like to hear from you on the list on similar lines on the issues=20
you faced as well as the workarounds you did.=20

Would definitely be of some help to other developers getting their
Cygwin environ up and running.

Yes, I remembered that from my 'Tiger' adventure at school...
Thanks for clearing up the jay thing!
