> Yes, that's exactly right, assuming that 'boo' doesn't exist. Hi, it happens even if boo does exist. To put it in context, the script in question was attempting to determine the current directory:
CURRENT_DIR=$(cygpath -ma "${0}"/../) (I didn't write this script but I assume they did this for performance reasons.) But anyway, as you can see ${0} always exists. I looked at the other thread but don't see an immediate connection as that was checking for non-existing path members.
