My Win98 Second Edition (Japanese OS) laptop:
C:\Windows\TEMP - has lots of stuff in it, dates to 2000
C:\Temp - made it in 2003 and this is very popular
/tmp - in Cygwin, actually /cygdrive/c/cygwin/tmp
base/conf - a folder I usually make off the base of my projects.

Meanwhile, at the far end of the Sagittarius Arm..
Hey Luke! How the heck do we compile Wx on cygwin??? It's much harder than those moisture evaporators..

Doing this on a slow 64mb machine which runs out of memory often may be part of it. But when I compile wxwindows on cygwin I get a dll, but when I try to make Wx it fails. And the ppm says it wants a later Windows version which has Unicode.. Anybody every do this right on cygwin in Win98?

<i?Update: I have though been using the win32 code, but Wx warns about not finding the unix libs..
