Hi,

I have installed cygwin on my 
Windows machine.
I use rcs. I have found
a problem.
Some time I will use rcs with
absolute parameter in windows format
like:

ci -d -u -x,v c:\temp\a.txt c:\temp\RCS\a.txt,v

but the command report an error:

file RCS/c:\temp\a.txt not found.

The problem is that the path is not
converted like unix before the substitution.

If I use a unix path like

ci -d -u -x,v /cygdrive/c/temp/a.txt /cygdrive/c/temp/RCS/a.txt,v"

all work ok!

There is a patch??

This is a bug??

Thanks in advance.
