Re: executing .bat & .cmd files with 1.7

Hi Larry, I'm sorry, I wasn't very clear: xyz.bat or xyz.cmd do indeed execute as before. My problem is that when I type xyz (i.e. without the extension) it won't find xyz.bat or xyz.cmd, as it did before upgrading. 2010/12/17 Larry Hall (Cygwin) : > On 12/17/2010 12:5

executing .bat & .cmd files with 1.7

Hi, I've just upgraded to 1.7 (from 1.5) and ever since I did, .bat and .cmd files are no longer automagically executed when I invoke them without their extension: i.e., it used to be that invoking xyz in bash would execute xyz.bat or xyz.cmd if it happened to be in my path. Is this a new feature
