Hi,

Is there any good reason to force user to use /cygdrive/ before accessing
a drive ?
I am asking it because I regularly switch from cygwin to mingw and some
simple script needs
to be adapted every time.
Wouldn't be easier to access directly to a drive without entering
cygdrive? Is there any reason for that ?
