Did you try that? It doesn't work for me. For one thing, I see no indication in cygpath's "--help" output that an argument of "-" tells it to read a name or names to convert from standard input. Nor will cygpath process multiple files (on the command line) in a single invocation (as you seem to suggest below).On Tue, 28 Jan 2003, Soren A wrote:> ... > > Or re-invent that wheel, your choice ;-) > > Soren A Why, one doesn't have to be a "cygpath" guru at all! A little judicious application of sed, and you can turn a space-separated path into a colon-separated one. Which reduces the problem to the one already solved... ;-) Seriously, though, you could use something like "`/bin/ls /cdv/D/goodies/babe*.jpg | cygpath -w -f -`" as the argument. This should expand all the files.
It would certainly be a good idea to add multiple filename capability to
cygpath. If I have time over the next week, I'll submit a patch.

And for this case and many similarly simple ones, "tr" will do.
