I don't think so. Look at the code of cygpath and you'll see that these two functions are only one half of the functionality. If Rob has to provide -w someone will ask for absolute paths or short names, etc. So better have a posixish tool and use cygpath for general conversion. Just my 2c (Cygpath contributor). Regards, Jörg
