Well, after spending a ridiculous amount of time playing around with this (it was fun!), I decided to add it to the "I'm having basic problems with find. Why?" FAQ after all. It appears that Linux works around the '.' '..' UDF problem at the filesystem driver level (that's kinda a guess, I only have commercial DVDs to test), which of course Windows doesn't do. As for other *nixes...well, they should read our FAQ. :) -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
