I'm not sure how this request will be taken...
I want to get cygwin to support multiple concurrent _different_ logins under Win98. I want to have one window logged in as user_a and another logged in as user_b.
>From reading the archives and website, I can see no _technical_ reason why the cygwin heap can't keep track of separate users (after all, it does exactly that on WinNT). Equally, I can't see what I need to tweak to get it to work on Win98.
(If Win98 users were really different users, there would be security implications here. However, all I really want to do is organise different collections of preferences for my different work mode - without having to log off Win98 to switch.)
Can anyone give me some pointers..?
