Here are two simple, imperfect proof-of-concept perl scripts. The first one just translates everything to /cygdrive/X/foo. The second one uses cygpath to get mount-table-aware paths. And, to reiterate: I know that these aren't perfect and miss some cases (like when part of a filename is located in a variable). I merely offer them as is as an example of what could be done. cgf #!/usr/bin/perl while (<>) { s!\b([a-z]):((?:[/\\][^/\\\s]+)+)!"/cygdrive/$1" . &fixslash($2)!eg; print; } sub fixslash { my $x = shift; $x =~ s%\\%/%g; return $x; } #!/usr/bin/perl while (<>) { s!\b([a-z]:(?:[/\\][^/\\\s]+)+)!&fix($1)!eg; print; } sub fix { my $x = `cygpath -u '$_[0]'`; chomp $x; return $x; } -- 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/
