Ooooh thanks I do it like cygpath -w "`pwd`" and now it works now.

cygpath -w space becomes line breaks?

[斟酌鵬兄 via Cygwin]

Hi,

Is this intended or am I misconfiguring something?

penguin@MY-PC~/Documents/Visual Studio 2015/Projects
$ cygpath -w `pwd`
D:\penguin\Documents\Visual
Studio
2015\Projects

penguin@MY-PC~/Documents/Visual Studio 2015/Projects
$ cygpath -w `pwd` | xxd
: 443a 5c70 656e 6775 696e 5c44 6f63 756d  D:\penguin\Docum
0010: 656e 7473 5c56 6973 7561 6c0a 5374 7564  ents\Visual.Stud
0020: 696f 0a32 3031 355c 5072 6f6a 6563 7473  io.2015\Projects
0030: 0a   .

As you can see the dir "Visual Studio 2015" being broken into lines.
