There is still a problem to be worked out, but I'm not yet sure where 
the problem is. Can you tell post your perl & Cwd version.

Dave, What versions of perl, Cwd, & M::B have you tested Alzabo with?

This problem doesn't seem directly related to Cygwin. It definately 
should not be an error to 'use Cwd', so this has to be a problem in 
M::B, Cwd, or perl. Right???

It's a great product. I wouldn't be without it. I think they have a 30 
day fully functional trial version.
