Two newbie problems.

[James Matthews]

Hi there,

I'm an absolute newbie to this, so please bear with me if I do/say something
stupid. :) I've just downloaded and installed Cygwin (everything) and
installed it. The first program I tried to run was "vim" and I got the
following error:

The VIM.EXE file is
linked to missing export CYGINTL.DLL:bind_textdomain_codeset.

Any ideas?

The other problem is that when I start Cygwin, I'm listed as "James
Matthews@OEMCOMPUTER" now I've heard that spaces in the username cause
problems so I altered "etc/profile" to read:

USER="jmatthews"

NOT:

USER="`id -un`"

...but when I restarted Cygwin, I was still listed as "James Matthews...".
Any ideas there?

Thanks,

James.

PS: Any Cygwin-compatible Java compilers out there?
