Hi Martin,<br>
<br>
Thanks for updating the msys package, and doubly, no <i>triply </i>so,
for keeping such good notes!
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/pkg-msys">http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/pkg-msys</a>)<br>
<br>
`apps\msys\msys.bat` could be simplified a little bit by changing
lines 13-16 inclusive as they just duplicate what o4w_env.bat always
does anyway. This also enables msys to be portable.<br>
<blockquote><tt>rem source OSGeo4W changes<br>
call "~dp0\..\..\bin\o4w_env.bat<br>
</tt></blockquote>
And in `postinstall\msys.bat` setting the window property for the
menu and desktop shortcuts to 7 (minimized) will stop the console
window flicker on startup:<br>
<blockquote><tt><small>xxmklink ... "msys" <font color="#990000"><font
color="#cc0000"><b>7</b></font> </font>"%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\msys\m.ico"<br>
xxmklink ... "msys" <font color="#cc0000"><b>7</b></font>
"%OSGEO4W_ROOT%\apps\msys\m.ico"<br>
</small></tt></blockquote>
(and if you took the first suggestion, the txtreplace line can also
be removed).<br>
<br>
If you add 'maintainer: MartinLanda" to the `setup.hint` file the
package vesions page will show your name and link trac homepage
automatically (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/versions.html">http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/versions.html</a>).<br>
<br>
cheers and thanks again,<br>
