So yes, this seems to be a Linux-only problem. AFAIR in cygwin it depends on both configuration of cygwin and whether you are on NTFS or FAT. On NTFS with proper setting (CYGWIN=ntsec IIRC), cygwin actually implements the x bit (uses the NT ACL to somewhat represent it). On other filesystem there is an option somewhere to tell whether it should show the x bit always set or always cleared (for me it seems to be always set). On the other hand MSYS shows the x bit as set whenever the file has executable extension. I don't think cygwin has this mode. -- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec <bulb@xxxxxx>
