Hello, after further study, I noticed that using "c:/directory" works fine with my tests except tar.exe. all of the following commands works cp.exe c:/temp/tuner.h c:/test/ mv.exe c:/temp/tt.h c:/test for tar.exe, tar test.tar c:/temp/* works. however, tar cvf c:/test.tar c:/temp/* and tar xvf c:/test.tar will fail is tar.exe the only exception that won't work correctly when using "c:/"? from my test, I didn't see any other commands has the problem in handling "c:/" I understand people here may like /cygdrive/c more than c:/. Just want to know if it is an accident feature that all other commands can work with c:/ except tar? thanks. tom _________________________________________________________________ The next generation of Search—say hello! http://imagine-windowslive.com/minisites/searchlaunch/?locale=en-us&FORM=WLMTAG -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
