Hi Henri, hi Marco,

I can see my postscript file again with cygwin1-20180216.dll.

hermes temp 10 uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 hermes 2.10.1(0.325/5/3)  x86_64 Cygwin
hermes temp 11 ls -l
total 328
-rwxrwx---+ 1 SYSTEM   SYSTEM  10896 Feb 20 16:37 MpCmdRun.log
-rwxrwx---+ 1 fd1026_2 None   322294 Feb 20 16:39 chap4.ps
hermes temp 12 getfacl chap4.ps
# file: chap4.ps
