cd dot dot dot slash dot weirdness


Hi,

I don't know if this is a bug but you all are
probably aware of this strange behavior.

bash-2.05a$ ls -al
total 18
drwxr-xr-x    2 user9 None         4096 Mar  6 12:14 .
drwxr-xr-x   27 user9 None        12288 Mar  1 15:16 ..
-rwxr-xr-x    1 user9 None          208 Jan  2 17:10 ftp.bash
-rwxr-xr-x    1 user9 None          239 Mar  6 12:10 sysdate-1.sh

bash-2.05a$ pwd   
/russ/scripts
bash-2.05a$ cd .../.
bash-2.05a$ pwd
/russ/scripts/...
bash-2.05a$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-4.0 SRC26 1.3.6(0.47/3/2) 2001-12-08 17:02 i686 unknown

... is this a bug do I have a virus?
Doesn't seem to hurt anything just curious.

Thanks
Russ
