J�rg,

I would think the same but I encountered some wierd behavoir.
Part of it has to do with Cygwin shell variable expansion and 
part of it with the fact that when on Cygwin/Windows java 
expects the -jar value to be in the Windows path style.  This
fixed the problem for me because I forced the -jar value to be
in the Windows path format.

When I ran the merlin.sh the java.exe program could not find
the jar file with the main class to run.  There is some other
logic problem in the script I think that does not correctly
set the variables in this file when dealing with Cygwin.  That's
why this change which should not have an effect is causing it
to work properly on Cygwin.

If I had the time I would rewrite the script altogether.  If
you would like to submit a new script or delta's I'll commit
the changes.

Alex
