The xhere script should pass y:\apps to cygpath to get the cygwin path, 
which should be /cygdrive/y/apps. IIRC /cygdrive/y may not be visible 
via ls, but it should be usable. I'm guessing the path is failing the 
directory test... in which case adding a trailing else to always cd 
$CHERE_DIR would fix things for you

> P.S. I'm also having trouble figuring out how to post replies to what I see on the web archive.  I did NOT get any email reply to my prior post, it just showed up on the web archive (that was good).  I carefully checked my spam quarantine areas several times to be sure.  Actually my first post on this topic was my second attempt to  post.  I had to add myself to the white-list which I didn't notice at first since the white-list suggestion was stuck in MY stupid stupid Outlook spam filter (Thanks so much Outlook).

But I just cannot see the "Reply" button on the archive.  Is this like when my wife says, its right there and points to it and yep, its really right there?  :-(

I just replied to list on the last message. This time I've made sure
