Howdy all!

I am trying to write a little script that will allow me to "cd" to any
directory in Cygwin by pasting in the Windows path.. Here is a screen dump
of my work so far:

   $ function cdd () {
   >    cd "`cygpath --unix "$*"`"
   > }

   $ pwd
   /

   $ cdd C:\My Music

   $ pwd
   /cygdrive/c/My Music

   $ cdd C:\Rob\mcd3060\Tri32002\a2
   bash: cd: C:Robmcd3060Tri32002a2: No such file or directory

   $ pwd
   /cygdrive/c/My Music

   $

Why does the first use work but not the second?

*puzzled*

Any help would be appreciated!

Rob
