scp with DOSish paths

[Jörg Schaible]

Hello,

can anything be done (environmetn variable, option ?), that would allow scp to support DOSish absolute paths?

$ pwd
/cygdrive/c

$ scp 'C:\test\file.txt' host:/target/
ssh: C: no address associated with name

$ scp '\test\file.txt' host:/target/
\test\file.txt: No such file or directory

$ scp 'test\file.txt' host:/target/
test\file.txt                                                    100% 7395     7.2KB/s   00:00 


Background: scp is called by a Java application (Maven) and I cannot even wrap the call with a script.
