Hello,

For a few weeks, maybe since I installed 1.7, I have found strange files
(nfs lock files?)
for files edit. E.g.:

-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 13:57 .#singlebuildweb.pl
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 13:58 .#singlebuildweb.pl.0
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 13:58 .#singlebuildweb.pl.1
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 13:58 .#singlebuildweb.pl.2
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 13:58 .#singlebuildweb.pl.3
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 14:02 .#singlebuildweb.pl.4
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 14:03 .#singlebuildweb.pl.5
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 14:03 .#singlebuildweb.pl.6
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 14:04 .#singlebuildweb.pl.7
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 14:04 .#singlebuildweb.pl.8
-rwxrwxrwx   1 emagiro  ath          104 May 21 14:04 .#singlebuildweb.pl.9

singlebuildweb> cat .#singlebuildweb.pl | tr -d '\000|\376|\377'; echo
!emagiro@EV0016D4A35054.eemea.ericsson.se.6000
singlebuildweb> od -c .#singlebuildweb.pl
0000000   !   <   s   y   m   l   i   n   k   > 377 376   e  \0   m  \0
0000020   a  \0   g  \0   i  \0   r  \0   o  \0   @  \0   E  \0   V  \0
0000040   0  \0   0  \0   1  \0   6  \0   D  \0   4  \0   A  \0   3  \0
0000060   5  \0   0  \0   5  \0   4  \0   .  \0   e  \0   e  \0   m  \0
0000100   e  \0   a  \0   .  \0   e  \0   r  \0   i  \0   c  \0   s  \0
0000120   s  \0   o  \0   n  \0   .  \0   s  \0   e  \0   .  \0   6  \0
0000140   0  \0   0  \0   0  \0  \0  \0
0000150

6000 is of course the port id for X:0.0...

Is this a cygwin issue?
Thanks,
Marc
