I believe you are wrong in assuming that Cygwin users are not familiar with this mode of operation. This whole thread is a result of _dropping_ support for drive letters from the Cygwin version of Make 3.81, which caused complaints on the Cygwin list. So, up and including v3.80, Cygwin users were using such a support as part of Make, even though HAVE_DOS_PATHS was not compiled (instead, a Cygwin-specific patch was maintained to provide that support). Chris, am I missing something? _______________________________________________ Make-w32 mailing list Make-w32@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/make-w32
