ok, thanks for being patient.  here it is:

From: Eli Zaretskii <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Type this:

  M-: (convert-standard-filename "/home/eli/#*mail*#1160WPf#") RET

and tell me what it prints.

echo line shows:
"/home/eli/#*mail*#1160WPf#"

There's a file lisp/term/cygwin.el.  Can you find out whether it is
loaded in both normal (graphics) session and in "emacs -nw"?  If it
is, maybe that's the place to put such a function.

I added two lines to cygwin.el:

(message " loaded cygwin.el")
(sit-for 3)

and when I start emacs with -q -nw under the cygwin terminal, I see this message echoed. when I start emacs under an xterm or without the -nw under x/ cygwin, this message is not echoed.
