Is there a way to find out in a bash script the cygdrive prefix?
I thought something simple like
mount -p|tail -1|cut -f1
but that incorrectly assumed the fields were tab delimited.
Since there can be spaces in the cygdrive prefix, I can't
use space a delimiter, example:
# mount -p
Prefix Type Flags
/cyg drive posix path system binmode
----
I could the /proc (registry) interface, but that's seems like
a "hack" and not necessarily a supported way of getting the information:
# echo prefix = \"$(<"/proc/registry/HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Cygnus
Solutions/Cygwin/mounts v2/cygdrive prefix" )\"
prefix = "/cyg drive posix path"
eh?
