I'm sure you won't put this in the "intelligent" question genre but...
I've been using cygwin for years and I brag about it and make all my teammates install it and make my managers refuse to piss away money on MKS...
Well, I think that party's over. I just installed the new distribution and every one (and I mean EVERY GODDAMN ONE) of my scripts that call any of your routines that need to know what a host or a directory are f#$king broke. What in god's name is "/usr/local/bin" on a windows machine? Why don't you UNIX weeneies get a grip. F#$king fix it. It used to be great. Now I can't even change a directory.
I've gone back to your old, unsupported code until we can find the money to equip our team with MKS for $400 a throw. Thanks for making a great product unusable.
Sincerely,
Barry Schwartz
