Hello,
The following command, under tcsh, produces the "nodosfilewarning"
message but shouldn't (IMHO). Of course, it seems more tcsh-related
than cygwin-related, but perhaps someone could have an idea.
% echo '\u' /etc/xi*
cygwin warning:
MS-DOS style path detected: \u
Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/d/u
CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames
\u /etc/xinetd.conf /etc/xinetd.d
%
No message under bash (under a fresh instance of cygwin1.dll of course):
$ echo '\u' /etc/xi*
\u /etc/xinetd.conf /etc/xinetd.d
Regards,
Denis Excoffier.
