Is there a way to find out in a bash script the cygdrive prefix? I thought something simple like mount -p|tail -1|cut -f1 but that incorrectly assumed the fields were tab delimited. Since there can be spaces in the cygdrive prefix, I can't use space a delimiter, example: # mount -p Prefix Type Flags /cyg drive posix path system binmode ----
There may be a simpler way to do it, but this seems to work:
mount -p | sed -n '2s/\([^ ]\) *[^ ][^ ]* *[^ ][^ ]*$/\1/p'
This is shorter:
mount -p | sed -nr '2s/([^ ]) +\S+ +\S+$/\1/p'
Neither of which work if there is a space in the cygdrive prefix; viz a viz:
Prefix Type Flags /cyg drive posix path system binmode
Actually yes they will. Did you actually try the above? I did.
