>HTH and TTFN

Thanks everyone for all the good thoughts. I have been having trouble with 
some of my messages not appearing on usenet so did not get back to this 
thread. See my latest posts on comp.os.cpm and know that everything worked 
as is by using cygwin to run ./configure then using MinGW to build this at 
the native XP cmd prompt.

The warnings are many, but no errors and no dependencies on cygwin's dll 
either. I took John Elliot's approach and skipped fsed.cpm because I did not 
want to muck with curses.

I am testing now and creating html versions of manpages which I am 
reformatting and will soon have the Windows Executables available for 
download.
