Cygwin, as in, the utilities, when fed with native path - mostly works.

The last trend in *NIX society, that I noticed, is to write portable scripts. Which means, they should work with /bin/sh. (The base POSIX shell implementation.) -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 01.12.2011, <20:26> Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
