Message-ID: <0D835E9B9CD07F40A48423F80D3B5A704BBEEB39@USA7109MB022.na.xerox.net> (raw)
I followed and understood the discussion to all the recent cygpath postings,
so I understand and expect the following:
$ cygpath -w 'a*b' | od -An -tx1c
61 ef 80 aa 62 0a
a 357 200 252 b \n
$
But, consider the following:
$ cygpath -w a:b | od -An -tx1c
41 3a 62 0a
A : b \n
$
Instead of the special character colon (:), shouldn't cygpath be showing
something in the Unicode Private Use area?
$ uname -svr
