Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Fri, 19 Feb 1999 10:20:50 +1030 From: Dan Glastonbury G'Day, I'm wondering if a patch is required for tcsh 6.08 to allow cd'ing through mount points. I rebuit tcsh from scratch from the source code I got from ftp://ftp.franken.de/pub/win32/develop/gnuwin32/cygwin32/porters/Vinschen_Co rinna/B20/tcsh-6.08.00-x.tar.gz using Mumit Khan's build of egcs-1.1.1 for cygwin. (The precompiled binaries that came in the tcsh tar.gz package didn't work, displaying the following message in a dialog box: "The procedure entry point dll_noncygwin_dllcrt0 could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin1.dll") Now under bash I mounted z: as follows: bash-2.02$ mkdir -p /maptek/carmen bash-2.02$ mount z:/ /maptek/carmen bash-2.02$ cd /maptek/carmen bash-2.02$ pwd /maptek/carmen But under tcsh the following happens: > cd /maptek > cd carmen > pwd /maptek But (as I've just discovered will preparing this message), cd /maptek/carmen follows the mount point like bash does. Is a patch required to allow cd'ing to mount points using relative paths?! confused Dan PS: My apologies if this is a known problem. I'm new to cygwin and a trawl through the M.L. archives didn't show up anything. -- Daniel Glastonbury --------------------------------------------------- Laugh And The Whole World Laughs With You, Cry And...
