That explains it. Here's a work-around:
2009-08-31 04:04:36 dpchr...@p43400e ~
$ ls -d /cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/ | perl -ne 's/\n/\00/;
print' | xargs -0 ls -dl
drwxrwxr-x+ 9 Administrators SYSTEM 0 Aug 30 01:19 /cygdrive/c/Docum
ents and Settings/
Add the Perl one-liner to my .bashrc as an alias:
2009-08-31 04:14:45 dpchr...@p43400e ~
$ vi .bashrc
alias nl2null="perl -ne 's/\n/\00/; print'"
Life is good!
2009-08-31 04:16:03 dpchr...@p43400e ~
$ ls -d /cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/ | nl2null | xargs -0 l
s -dl
drwxrwxr-x+ 9 Administrators SYSTEM 0 Aug 30 01:19 /cygdrive/c/Docum
ents and Settings/
Thanks! :-)
