My apologies if this isn't a cygwin issue. I tried using find in cygwin with some examples from various documentation on the command. I kept getting the same error messages. I was wondering if the cygwin syntax was a bit different. This is what I tried: bash-2.05b$ pwd /cygdrive/c/CUP/VRC bash-2.05b$ find . -name "errors.txt" -print FIND: Parameter format not correct bash-2.05b$ Thanks in advance, and my apologies if this is not a cygwin issue Steve -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
