According to Jerry D. Hedden on 3/29/2006 8:02 AM:
> I am trying to run the Windows version of gVim from a bash script using
> the 'run' command.
> 
> However, the following fails:
>     run '/cygdrive/c/program files/vim/vim64/gvim.exe'
> with the following dialog box:
>     Error: Couldn't find "/cygdrive/c/program files/vim/vim64/gvim.exe"

run might not be able to figure out the virtual /cygdrive.  Try using
cygpath to convert the filename into a windows path that run will be able
to understand.
