Sergey Okhapkin had developed a patch for that, and his 'coolview' version of the B20.1 cygwin1.dll was distributed on his web page. It was not official, nor was it supported by Cygnus. The mixed option doesn't exist in the more recent cygwin's. If you would like to 'roll your own', you could get Sergey's patch, update it to apply to the 1.1.x cygwin source code, and build your own dll. However, I don't think that option will be supported by the mainstream kernel, since it leads to a lot of undesirable behavior on Windows. BTW, the environment variable is no longer 'CYGWIN32' -- it's 'CYGWIN'. Are you still using a B20.1 cygwin? --Chuck Juan Jose Sanchez Mesa wrote: > > Hi! > > I'm trying to create files with same filename but mixed case filenames, but > it don't work. > I have a mounted directory in a NTFS drive, and I have the 'mixed' option > in CYGWIN32 env variable. > But it still don't work. > > Any ideas ? > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > Juan José Sánchez Mesa Heraldo de Aragón S.A. > Dpto.
