EDIT: Eh, apologies if this sounded like chastising -- I didn't mean to. As a developer who's been trapped in "Windows-mindset" for many years, I wanted to try to inspire other Windows devs to try to use *nix-based solutions even if their only option is Windows development. Cygwin is in a very good spot right now -- it's achieved so much acceptance that even the most hardened institutions now allow it to be installed.

Perhaps they were using . . . something other than *nix.

That command works nicely for me in Cygwin.

No snarkier than my remark, and less snarky than it might have been for being so much smarter.
