It always contains paths with forward slashes, but according to
the logic currently used, an absolute path may appear in the .lyx
file. In the win32 version this is in a C:/xxx path style,
whereas in a posix version it is like /c/xxx. Now, a cygwin
version has no problem with either of them, but a win32 version
doesn't understand the /c/xxx style.
Ok, thanks for the clarification. IMHO C:/xxx is the way to go for both versions then, no need to make special case for cygwin in .lyx and .tex files. But I guess you have already reached that conclusion. IMHO, this should be the same for internal format because non-cygwin compilers don't understand /c/xxx either.

No, .lyx and .tex files should be treated differently. I agree
that paths going to .lyx files should be in the C:/xxx syntax,
but paths for .tex files have to be in either format depending on
the TeX engine used.

I guess this is because cygwin tetex cannot understand c:/xxx style. Sorry if I made you repeat something, your exchange with Georg was pretty long and I hadn't the courage to read it all. IMHO if cygwin tetex is not able to read c:/xxx style, this is a tetex bug.

Thanks,
Abdel.
