Hi Mike,
I had seen the mention about the cygipc in the readme, but I don't seem to
have it installed and when I looked it up I saw a comment about it being
depreciated and being replaced by functionality in the cygwin DLL. I
therefore didnt' bother with it.
How do I go about installing it? I've had a couple of looks at installing it
through setup.exe but I can't find it in any of the categories. (I've got
cygutils installed which I thought contained it)
Thanks,
Gary
