His problem is more or less the opposite of what you just said. IPython doesn't know anything about Cygwin, so when its file name completion does its work, it creates command lines like ls c:\windows\system32\qqq.dll but Cygwin parses that like a Unix command line, resulting in ls c:windowsystem32qqq.dll -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
