[CWB] CWB Windows 7 (64bit) used with cygwin

[Hannah Kermes]

  Hello,

I just recently installed the windows version of CWB on my laptop.
Untill now I worked only with smaller corpora (the largest was the
EUROPARL).
So far it works fine as long as I use the cqp with local paths. The
registry and the corpora directories are in the same directory and I
start cqp from this directory.
If I want to use absolute paths, the corpus is not found by CQP,
even if I use the normal registry directory of CQP.
When exporting results from cqp, it again works fine to store the
results in the local directory, but I cannot redirect it to another
directory.

Another problem I encountered, which is a bit more annoying, is that the
-e option does not seem to work.

Despite my dislike for the native windows shell, I tried it also, but
encountered the same problems.

I encoded some small sample corpora, which worked fine, but I do not
seem to have the more comfortable cwb-make but only cwb-makeall ...
Did I forget to install something, or is that not available for the
Windows-Version?.

Thanks a lot in advance
Hannah
