I say this is probably a wontfix.
The OP didn't mention either the '-f' option or use the word "colon" in his original email. >Use of "cygpath -pf -|sed s/:/\\n/g" works fine for me. It's not clear what you mean by "paths". If you're expecting cygpath to break up a UNIX PATH-like environment variable, then, using UNIX tools to do this is the right way to handle it. We're not going to add a feature to cygpath to provide this simple function. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
