Hello, there :) Attached is a testcase which displays the problem. On Linux it will properly return 13, while on cygwin it returns 0. I found this while trying to understand why MC doesn't extract properly files from say .zip files. I don't know exactly why they call O_RDONLY combined with O_APPEND but I will mail the mc-devel list ASAP. Still according to the Linux man page and SUSv2, O_APPEND should be taken into account only when writing to the file. Having in mind that fhandler_base::write() calls SetFilePointer before each write, I wonder why fhandler_disk_base::open calls SetFilePointer when it detects O_APPEND ?
