hi folks, I'm trying to mount a drive as textmode rather then the automatic binmode. I know mount for linux and freebsd but it's not acting AFAICT correctly. This is what I'm trying and the error I get mount -t -s c:\cygwin / mount: /: Invalid argument I tried escaping and quoting the / in case windows dislikes /, even though I'm using the cygwin bash. Didn't work. Basically I want to edit in vim files I checkout with Sourcesafe. If anyone knows how to make vim read windows files , that would also solve my problem - I'm looking into that also.. Also, after I couldnt get the drive mounted as textmode or binmode I decided a reboot was in order, hoping it would at least return to it's default binmode. After a reboot the drive does not get remounted and now things are generally messed up. cheers, ms-
