well, this is normal. myeditor knows nothing about posix paths,
since it is no Cygwin application. For non-Cygwin apps you have
to convert the path yourself:
myeditor "`cygpath -w /etc/services`"
and you should take care in case of a non-Cygwin editor, that it
can handle unix text file format!
Regards,
Jörg
