That works fine. But the problem is when I execute xdvi from emacs. Then this gets inserted: c:/cygwin/home/test/test.dvi if I could just get emacs to only type /home/test/test.dvi it would work. But I think it is wierd that xfig accepts the full path while xdvi only accept the path excluding c:/cygwin, but maybe its a bug in xdvi. -- 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/
