calling cygwin executables from Windows

Hi, I like to use gnu text utils like join or sort from Windows command prompt, not from Cugwin bash. This mostly works fine unless you are trying to use a file tha is not in the current directory. Looks like those utils get confused about Windows paths. Is that right? Thanks Alexander Genk
