[Mingw-msys] Does anyone read questions on msys forum on sf? Problem with "-d" & "-f" switches when listing files.

[smiley <mem...@fa...>]

Hi guys

I had a little problem with very simple scripts. I needed ability to
test if file is real file or directory. I used "-d" and "-f" switches,
but my script
didn't work. I tracked everything down to problem with msys and wrote
some simple scripts to test the problem wich seems to confirm. I have
posted the script
and tryed to describe the odd behaviour on msys forum:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1249853&forum_id=338575
but nobody has answered yet ... :).

I'm not a bash guru, but since I use linux as well, I have much more
experience with bash then dos batch files, and would like to rather use
bash for scripting things
then to learn dos commands. But I need to know if this is bug in msys or
if I did something wrong ... Hope someone can take a peek into this and
post a word or two ...

thnks & advance
