cygwin is great, I like it.
But when I want to change directory, I have to type 'cd D:/dira/dirb' or 'cd
D:\\dira\\dirb'.
This is somewhat inconvenient.

Is there a way to use backslash directly as path delimiter on cygwin?
So I can just copy the dir path from windows explore, and paste it in
cygwin's command line?
This would be much better.

Thanks for any help and reply...
