I assume you meant "Program Files" in your opening statement. Your solution works. The alternative is to quote the internal paths with spaces or otherwise escape the spaces. > 3.

Regardless, if you want to provide it as an official package for Cygwin, read through <http://cygwin.com/setup.html> and in your ITA/ITP, just ask Yaakov if he minds you picking up this package and its dependencies from him. -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
