LERN2SHELL. Try "echo /c/Doc*/Paul/App*/Moz*/Fire*/Pro*/*default/" to see if
you've actually got a real path there, or no matching path, or several matching
paths. Try stripping components off one by one and seeing which one you made a
mistake in. The multiple expansions work just fine for me:
$ PS1="$ " pdksh
$ cd /cygdrive/c/Doc*/Adm*/App*/Moz*/Fire*/Pro*/*default/
$ pwd
/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/Administrator/Application
Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/bfwp4loc.default
$
Also, LERN2BUGREPORT. You told us all about how you feel, but completely
omitted the crucial detail of WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS when you try it. Error
message? No error message? Boxing glove on a spring comes out of your computer
and punches you in the nose?
cheers,
