Re: Newbie starting up

It turns out that there is a very simple solution to the
problems with double-clicking on files with spaces in the
directory path. Just open the file C:\cygwin\bin\lily-wins
in a text editor, add double quotes around $1:

#!/bin/sh
python /bin/lily-wins.py "$1"

Save the file and everything should work.
