Hi,
	I installed cygwin a couple of days back on my machine( NT 4).  Just
yesterday i noticed my build( my java application compilation using "make")
did not work anymore and the makefile gave some weird error. A simple mkdir
was'nt working and things like that.
I realised it was cygwin and removed its bin from the PATH.
Well that worked but there is still a problem. The makefile when it
executes, treats '\' as an escape character!!
so somthing like
xcopy .\*.xml \temp
is not working. It seyz cant find file .*.xml

How do I set this right ?

Please reply as soon as possible !

Thankyou
Abhishek Gupta
