Hello,
When I run the program below from my home directory in a PowerShell
Console (Windows 8-1) I've to use an extra backslash character as
shown below or the star is expanded. Which happens only when the
program has been compiled in Cygwin.
Is this a bug or a known feature?

for (i=1; i < argc; i++) {
printf("\n%s",argv[i]);
}//for
printf("\nargc=%d\n",argc-1);
return 0;
}
