pathname conversion

[Earnie Boyd]

Thanks Pete, I've just got around to installing your debash utility, and 
it works great.

I wanted to wait until the end of September to post this thank-you due 
to the numerous posts that had nothing to due with the original 
question.  Thank-you to the few of you who actually answered my 
question.

As for those of you who just couldn't stand to let the post from xxx go 
unanswered as I had planned to do, it would help if you would not post 
your responses to gnu-win32.  Although some of what was said was 
informative it had nothing to do with gnu-win32, porting of tools and 
scripts, etc. which is the intent that the kind people at CYGNUS 
SOLUTIONS have provided.  Rather it became a flame and name bashing 
contest which wasn't necessary or appreciated.
