Windows Shortcuts


Hello,

on my new XP home the windows shortcut format seems to have changed. (It worked well with NT 4).
Cygwin  created shortcuts are approx. 150 bytes large, windows
shortcuts 600 bytes. Unfortunately they don't recognise each other properly.
$ ls -ln *home*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 1005     513            92 Jul 26 02:20 home -> /home
-rwx------    1 1005     513           353 Jul 26 02:21 whome.lnk

I have tried to modify attributes and cacls etc, but this didn't change the 
behavior.

$ ls -l win*
-rwxrwxrwx    1 erik     Kein          618 Jul 25 23:18 win.lnk
lrwxrwxrwx    1 erik     Kein          144 Jul 25 23:47 winc1.lnk -> /c/WINDOWS/system32/dr
lrwxrwxrwx    1 erik     Kein          144 Jul 25 23:22 wincyg.lnk -> /c/WINDOWS/system32/d
$ echo $CYGWIN
ntsec tty notitle glob

I will try to attach the whome.lnk as .txt.

Best,
