[gobo-eiffel-develop] Cygwin unsupported?

[Colin P. A. <co...@co...>]

I guess cygwin is an unsupported environment?

I just tried running a test case under cygwin, and I got an error
message that said:

cannot read build file 's:\cygdrive\s\......'

$GOBO evaluates to /cygdrive/s/...

I guess I have to use a DOS command window instead.

I think I remember that some people used cygwin in the past.
But it might be a long time ago and it might not work anymore.
You might need to explicitly set the environment variable
GOBO_OS to unix.

But in any case, the recommended way to use Gobo on any platform
is to use the native shell on that platform.
