This looks ok, but it doesn't make much sense when started from a Cygwin shell. The reason is that empty paths are converted to "." or ".\" respectively when converting between posix and win32 paths. Chris, I might be missing something but that looks like a bug in conv_path_list to me. Why is conv_fn called with "." for empty strings instead of ignoring the empty path? Is an empty path component a windowzism I don't know about? Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Project Co-Leader mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Red Hat, Inc.
