But I've figured out more: B18 seems to always tack a space at the end of the command line, also from a DOS box. B19 does not, just like what you would expect from Unix shells. I was relying on this space being there. As this happens also in a DOS box I guess cygwin32[b19].dll is doing this. I also found that double quotes are added: BASH> a.out foo\ bar\ baz returns literally a.out "foo bar baz" with GetCommandLine. Note that I didn't type the quotes. B18 then also has that additional space at the end. About my other question: does -Wl,--subsystem,windows not work with g77 or was I doing something wrong?
