bash will not run a command using a windows path to it anymore. Sorry for not "keeping up" - I did go through the cygwin announcements for 2008, but probably need to go back even further. I will plan on doing this. When this syntax stopped being supported and why? - not that I object ;-> -- thanks/regards, Tom -- 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/
