I have a similar problem where I want to use Emacs' ediff as the "External Diff Tool" in an application I use. The solution was to create a wrapper cmd file that converts \ to /. The technique I used is to use the SET command. Test the following code in a .cmd file: --- conv.cmd --- @echo off set filename=%* echo old = %filename% set filename=%filename:\=/% echo new = %filename% --- c:\> conv test\of\ backslashes\ \ old = test\of\ backslashes\ \ new = test/of/ backslashes/ / If you are prepared to use a wrapper script like this, your problems are solved. :)
