Thank you for your report.
I need your help in finding a good solution for this. Previously,
when you reported this bug about 3 weeks ago, I wrote in response:
Does Cygwin have a non-trivial definition of convert-standard-filename?
(If not, it needs one, but I'm not sure where to put it. Any
suggestions?)
This fragment from files.el:make-auto-save-file-name:
;; Make sure auto-save file names don't contain characters
;; invalid for the underlying filesystem.
(if (and (memq system-type '(ms-dos windows-nt))
;; Don't modify remote (ange-ftp) filenames
(not (string-match "^/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:" result)))
(convert-standard-filename result)
makes sure that invalid auto-save file names are never created on
DOS/Windows, but it doesn't catch Cygwin.
I didn't get any replies. Could you please answer these questions
now?
Thanks in advance.
