Hello, The following command, under tcsh, produces the "nodosfilewarning" message but shouldn't (IMHO). Of course, it seems more tcsh-related than cygwin-related, but perhaps someone could have an idea.
% echo '\u' /etc/xi* cygwin warning: MS-DOS style path detected: \u Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/d/u CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning. Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames \u /etc/xinetd.conf /etc/xinetd.d % No message under bash (under a fresh instance of cygwin1.dll of course): $ echo '\u' /etc/xi* \u /etc/xinetd.conf /etc/xinetd.d Regards, Denis Excoffier. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
