Don't mount to /cygdrive/c/DATA/; mount points to a subdirectory of /cygdrive don't really do any good, because the path resolution does not look for mount points residing inside /cygdrive. Instead, mount c:\data\myproject to a POSIX path (ie. something like /myProject). Thanks, Eric, for point

Thanks Eric for the proposals for "mount": >mount -f -u -t "c:/cygwin/home/eblake/text" "/home/eblake/text" Unfortunately this does not work for me. (Shell scripts still show that this is not mounted in textmode). The directory I have to mount in textmode would be C:\DATA\myProject\solu

[Sending this to the mailing list also, as my reply only got to eric directly...] Hi Eric, first of all thanks for your reply. Sounds like ar needs to be taught about open(O_BINARY)/fopen("rb") (or be linked with binmode.o). Do I have to post this advice in any other list to get it to note
