Hi everyone!

As I often access different drives from within the bash I'm wondering if
there's a quicker way to get on, say, drive l (a network drive) than entering
'cd /cygdrive/l'?
I alias'd '/cygdrive/l' to 'l' which works fine for cd, but not for commands
like chmod, cp, mv etc. Among others I'd like to use the automatic command
line completion which doesn't work for /cygdrive/... either.
Any suggestions?

Best wishes,

Svartsjel
