Hi all,

I'm sorry for this question (that looks trivial) but I'm a newbie.
Here is the question :

Is there an easy way  for me to use DOS path (using backslashes) under
Cygwin ?

I've tried : 'c:\winnt\system32\calc.exe" but it does not work.
Of course c:/winnt/system32/calc.exe works but I try to use Windows programs
that open files with a DOS like path...

Thanks for your help.

Mike
