That's right Larry,
But the message "No such file or directory" was for "ls -d /C/Program/flow" or
"ls -d /C/Program\ Files/flow"."Program" egal to "Program Files" (or not), that
isn't the problem.

"ab.exe" is a c program. It was compiling using gcc. And i want to run it in
Windows Xp

In DOS, "C:\Program Files\flow\ab.exe" give this "usage : ab inFile"

In cygwin, i have this one:
a@a-38a18ee0fd4~
$ chmod a+x /cygdrive/C/Program\ Files/flow/ab.exe
a@a-38a18ee0fd4~

but i believe that i should read at least the header written in this program.
