Thanks to all who responded to my first post. Yes, indeed, it was the
Windows version of find that was causing my problem. However,
correcting this problem has revealed another. Again, it is probably
newbie in nature, but your assistance is appreciated.
Taking my initial command line:
find . -name *.c -print
gives the following error:
find: Paths must precede expression
Usage: find [path...] [expression]
Just to check things out, I got into bash and checked my pwd
(/gnu_src/cdk/winsup), and I entered this absolute address into the
command line. No luck, same error.
Suggestions?
Thanks again for your patience and your help.
