Hello,

I am trying to use the @pathnames expansion (see
http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-specialnames.html#AEN852 ), but it  seems not to work:
>/usr/bin/echo @mylist
@mylist
>/bin/echo @mylist
@mylist
>echo @mylist
@mylist
>cat mylist
This   is   "a     long"  line

What could be the problem?

Thank you for your help.
Bye,
Joachim

P.S.
