If I copy ls.exe and related cygwin dll over a machine with no cygwin installed, "ls /" will list all files under c:/ , not c:/cygwin. I mistakely thought it will list c:/cygwin. that is good to know. thanks. tom _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself - download free Windows Live Messenger themes! http://clk.atdmt.com/MSN/go/msnnkwme0020000001msn/direct/01/?href=http://imagine-msn.com/themes/vibe/default.aspx?locale=en-us&source=hmtagline -- 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/
