It provide no information at all in any event (be it missing argument, or nonexistent path (not like it's checking for existence right now... which only making situation more complicated)), requiring non-obvious, manually conceived tests to ensure that the program operates orderly. I should also add that the attach was unintended. Got a little mix-up here, and the file slipped through cracks to the message. > Isn't that ( cygpath -mli "$possibly_empty_var" ) what you need? No, I didn't. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 16.02.2014, <10:10> 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
