is pax available for cygwin?
I don't see pax in the package manager under archive, so I did a search and found a thread about this, but it was from 2004. I need to do some copy operations on files with names containing some characters that annoy bash, so pax would be helpful. Is it in there somewhere or is there a straight forward way to build it?
