Since you use eval, you could insert extra quotes as part of the command - they won't hurt, and will make it safer. Another note is that the user's installation may not be in C:\cygwin. The following modification should fix both (and the extraneous '\', to boot): -I/*) path="`expr "$option" : '-I/\(.*\)'`" cmd="$cmd \"-I`cygpath -m /`/$path\"" ;; In fact, you could do even better, by passing the path to cygpath as well: -I/*) path="`expr "$option" : '-I/\(.*\)'`" cmd="$cmd \"-I`cygpath -m /$path`\"" ;; I leave the the rest of the cases as an exercise for the reader. :-D Oh, and the last line should be 'eval "$cmd"' (note the double quotes).
