Thanks Earnie for reminding me of this! I'll have to try it out and see what happens. The current Cygwin Tcl port's trouble with Cygwin paths/mounts is quite fixable IMO, and it may be a matter of doing the path/name translation in a different place than is done right now. I remember trying to fix this a *long* time ago, but ran into a Cygwin bug in resolving relative symlink; I belive cgf fixed when he bacame an active contributor (like I said, it was a long time ago), but I never moved it off the back burner. My memory is rather shoddy on what exactly the potential fix was and wheter it actually fixed the problem or not, but we'll cross that bridge later.
