Hi guy's,

I'm using Textpad as my favorite editor for al textbased work. I would
like to use it as the default editor and set an

EDITOR=c:/Textpad/TextPad.exe

in my profile.
It starts ok, but any file passed through by cygwin misses the first
two characters. An example /tmp/crontab.1188 would become mp/crontab.1188
and textpad would thus start with an emptyfile instead of editing the
required crontab file. My Cygwin variable is set to binary. Any ideas?
Workarounds?

Raphael.
