You're not getting it are you? The help syntax that you have invoked is for WINDOWS! "cd /D" has no meaning to ksh. ksh is a UNIX utility which requires UNIX paths.

It certainly doesn't understand the "/D" qualifier which is associated with the windows command line. cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
