Subject: tar problems in cygwin
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Am I using tar incorrectly here or does tar under cygwin not work the same
as in bash under Linux?

BASH.EXE-2.02$ cd /
BASH.EXE-2.02$ tar -xvfz /windows/desktop/emacs*
tar: Cannot open z: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
BASH.EXE-2.02$ ls /windows/desktop/emacs*
/windows/desktop/emacs-20_3_1-bin-i386_tar.gz
BASH.EXE-2.02$ pwd
/
BASH.EXE-2.02$
