Re: crashed with Norton Scan

["Jerome Moreau" <moreau dot jerome at attbi dot com>]

Hi,

I have and XP system and just tried editing the group file you mention with
Textpad and Word but it opens without rebooting on my machine. Scanning it
with Norton also works... You can tell what versions you have of cygwin by
running :

cygcheck -c

Really sorry about the empty post I just sent : I meant to reply only to
Ronald.. I'll be more careful in the future.

Jerome.
