Re: Could not touch file when specify full path in Cygwin in .bat file

Hi, Cygwin support group,
I have problem to touch a file when specify the full path. Here are some examples. MKS works fine
-- Filename with special characters
D:\>touch D:\usr\meta\boxster\UNITw2kMixednew\boxster_UNITw2kMixednew_0205\Tree\!@#$%&()_+.!@#$%&()_+
[snip]
And, given that I don't see a POSIX-style path anywhere, where exactly
are you using Cygwin?
This works for me in Cygwin's bash:
/tmp$ touch '!@#$%&()_+.!@#$%&()_+'
/tmp$ ls
!@#$%&()_+.!@#$%&()_+ nu.2360 t83c.0
...Maybe you need to escape some characters or use single-quotes (')?
