Hello!

I just recently upgraded to the newer version of cygwin and I am not 
unable to change directory into Program Files or My Documents using the 
forward slash.  This was working before the upgrade and I was wondering 
what I should check to see how it was disabled.  I have also tried using 
single quotation marks 'c:\Program Files' and this does not work 
either.  I really don't want to mount all of the programs that I want to 
use that are installed in Program Files, and I can anyway because there 
are only 30 mount points possible and I have more than 30 programs in 
file folders with spaces in them in Program Files. Is there any way 
around this problem?  Thanks!

Matt
