Here are two simple, imperfect proof-of-concept perl scripts.
The first one just translates everything to /cygdrive/X/foo. The second
one uses cygpath to get mount-table-aware paths.
And, to reiterate: I know that these aren't perfect and miss some cases
(like when part of a filename is located in a variable). I merely offer
them as is as an example of what could be done.
cgf
#!/usr/bin/perl
while (<>) {
s!\b([a-z]):((?:[/\\][^/\\\s]+)+)!"/cygdrive/$1" . &fixslash($2)!eg;
print;
}
sub fixslash {
my $x = shift;
$x =~ s%\\%/%g;
return $x;
}
#!/usr/bin/perl
while (<>) {
s!\b([a-z]:(?:[/\\][^/\\\s]+)+)!&fix($1)!eg;
print;
}
sub fix {
my $x = `cygpath -u '$_[0]'`;
chomp $x;
return $x;
}
