Thanks. I don't see anything obvious there. I tried reproducing your problem on 3 machines I have here, 2 at 1.7.25 and 1 at 1.7.17. They all showed all the drives, including the subst'd drive, in both Cygwin and outside. I'm not sure why you're seeing what you're seeing. Perhaps if you look at the output of strace when running from cmd.exe outside of bash, this will shed some light on why R is being ignored? -- Larry _____________________________________________________________________ A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting annoying in email? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
