Greetings, john daintree! > My understanding is that Cygwin maps $TMP and $TMPDIR (and probably others) > to a Windows form (/cygdrive/c/tmp -> C:\tmp)
Nop. The actual mapping depends on your settings, but defaults to /tmp which is inside Cygwin installation root. Another option is to mount /tmp with 'usertemp' option, which would then redirect it to the user's %TEMP%. > when calling a WIN32 program > (e.g. cmd.exe).

What you want to achieve and what your actual observation compared to expected behavior? -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Friday, January 27, 2023 10:41:46 Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
