============= SNIP ============
CYGWIN_CONV_TO_POSIX_PATH(3)         CYGWIN_CONV_TO_POSIX_PATH(3)

SYNOPSIS
       extern "C" void
       cygwin_conv_to_posix_path  (const  char  *  path,  char  *
       posix_path);

DESCRIPTION
       Converts a Win32 path to a POSIX path.  If path is already
       a  POSIX path, leaves it alone. If  path is relative, then
       posix_path will also be relative.   Note  that  posix_path
       must point to a buffer of sufficient size; use MAX_PATH if
       needed.
