Operator error? What exactly did you try to do? for instance here's what you see on my terminal: $ cd /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/ $ pwd /cygdrive/c/Program Files You can also use quotes: $ cd "/cygdrive/c/Program Files"/ The last slash is not necessary (it was added by auto-completion). -- René Berber -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
