Cygwin problem on windows path
I used cygwin to work in windows, however now I have a problem here.
Since I put my cygwin on D:cygwin, when I try to run a program, namely ocamldep.exe, it returns a path error which I don't know how to fix.
The error is as follow.
/bin/sh: D:cygwinbinocamldep.exe: command not found
I know for sure they dont have cygwinbinocamldep.exe, but how to change this into ocamldep.exe only? Sorry but I'm really a dummy in Unix and everything on it.

There's something wrong with your path. My guess is that string "D:cygwinbinocamldep.exe" is passed to sh, which then does backslash removal and ends up with D:cygwinbinocamldep.exe.
Post, please, what's in your $PATH variable: echo $PATH will tell what's its value.
Apart of that you may try to run D:cygwinbinocamldep.exe, /cygwin/bin/ocamldep.exe or /bin/ocamldep.exe (first one is windows path with UNX style backslashes, second and third are native UNX paths, one of these might work).

This doesn't look good. According to cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/setup-env.html windows format PATH should be converted to UN*X format by the batch that starts your shell.

I'm not sure what you mean by changing path for cygwin. What I mean is that your $PATH should show UN*X-like paths with directory names separated by "/", not "". You have to solve this problem to have programs running. Maybe this FAQ cs.nyu.edu/~yap/prog/cygwin/FAQs.html will help you.
