Although some basic commands in Cygwin understand DOSish syntax, its up to the individual maintainer to patch that into the code and maintain this patch.

IMHO the flag useCygwinPath should be enough. The implementation can determin the paths itself by executing "cygpath -u path" for each. The cygwinMountPath option is not a good choice, since it depends on the developer's environment and might not work at all if the path is on the network. - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
