Might the ability to identify cygwin's root be a good thing to add to cygpath? (Note: I'm not commenting on Corinna's proposal per se - hers was just the latest email in this thread.) Under "System information", one could have an option -R, --root output cygwin root directory where $ cygpath -Rw C:\cygwin $ cygpath -Ru /cygdrive/c/cygwin or, if the cygdrive prefix has been changed to a simple /, $ cygpath -Ru /c/cygwin Just an idea. Unfortunately, I cannot propose a patch. Thanks for considering this. - Barry Disclaimer: Statements made herein are not made on behalf of NIAID.
