I checked the cygcheck output and noticed that my cygwin dll was old even though "setup" thought I was up to date. Maybe a previous cygwin update failed to complete properly? I reinstalled the base cygwin package using setup and now it is all working fine. I guess the current bash doesn't jive with cygwin 1.5.19(0.150/4/2) 2006-01-16 15:01 i686 Cygwin, Thanks everyone, Andrew ----- Original Message ---- From: Dave Korn To: cygwin mailing list Sent: Wednesday, October 4, 2006 1:13:22 PM Subject: RE: bash shell globbing not working anymore On 04 October 2006 18:08, Andy Telford wrote: > Nope.
