I see. Should work, indeed. I'd say the resulting code is less optimal (repeated conditions, strncpy() with length = 1) and a bit more difficult to understand. But, after all, it's a matter of personal taste, so feel free to ignore it. ;) One more small note. Since EMX is an environment similar to Cygwin in purpose (according to the description), i suggest that it has the same property and should also understand both forms of path. So, ok, i promise to take a look at my spawn patch on weekend. I remember about env-variable agreement. :) Kind regards, Pavel Fedin Expert Engineer Samsung Electronics Research center Russia _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
