RE: cygwin and \ or /

I used to copy-n-paste the paths into my bash-shell window on cygwin...

Perhaps the forward-slashes break copy-n-paste in normal windoze cmd-shells.
And that is of course what the majority of windows users will use.

't would be nice if it could be made to work with both shells without
recompiling!
