36
    (given by a string matrix <VERB>paths</VERB>) from windows native 
 
37
    filename to posix-style pathnames and back. The target style 
 
38
    is given by the optional string <VERB>type</VERB> which can be 
 
39
    <VERB>'u'</VERB> for Unix or <VERB>'w'</VERB> for Windows. The default 
 
40
    style is set according to the value of <VERB>MSDOS</VERB>. 
 
41
    If <VERB>MSDOS</VERB> is true (resp. false ) then default type is <VERB>'w'</VERB>
 
42
    (resp.  <VERB>'u'</VERB>).</P>
 
43
    <P>
 
44
    Windows pathnames starting with <VERB>name:</VERB> are converted to 
 
45
    pathnames starting with <VERB>/cygdrive/name/</VERB> using the cygwin 
 
46
    convention.</P>
 
47
    <P><VERB>flagtrail</VERB> is an optional boolean parameter. When its value 
 
48
    is true a trailing separator (<VERB>'\'</VERB> or <VERB>'/'</VERB>) is added 
 
49
    at the end of the path.</P>
 
50
    <P><VERB>flagexpand</VERB> is an optional boolean parameter. When its value 
 
51
    is true leading strings like  <VERB>HOME</VERB>, <VERB>SCI</VERB> or <VERB>~</VERB> are 
 
52
    expanded using environment variables.</P>
