Hello all,

So, I used to be able to do this in Cygwin to open a chat session (in
my case, With Skype for Business aka S4B):

    cygstart "sip:user AT domain DOT com"

But I noticed recently that this now fails with:

    Unable to start 'sipuser AT domain DOT com': The specified file was not found.

I have no idea why the colon ":" is getting converted into an a UTF
F038 character.  I'm also unsure of when this stopped working, since I
don't use it all that often.


I thought maybe having some slashes would be required, so I tried:

    cygstart "sip:/user AT domain DOT com"

Error:
    Unable to start 'sip\user AT domain DOT com': The specified file was not found.

And yes, I did cut-paste that and *yes* the direction of the slash *changed*.


With 2 slashes, a get an error in S4B that the address doesn't
exist/is incorrect.

With 3 slashes, a new chat window opens!  But its with user
"///user AT domain" (ie - non-existant user).


Is the way the SIP protocol needs to be called broken or did something
change in Cygwin to require slashes as a part of cygstart?

Any suggestions on this?


Thanks everybody!
