Hi, I have this snippet:
sub GetCygwinMountsPath(){
.......

}
my $CMPath = GetCygwinMountsPath();
print ("The path is: $CMPath");



system(q{perl -i.orig -pe "s!/cygdrive/c!/!g" $CMPath/cygwin/etc/passwd});

but in th elast line $CMPath seems not to be interpreted althought $CMPath 
="c:/".
Why?
i have the following error:
The path is: C:/Can't open $CMPathcygwin/etc/passwd: No such file or directory.
Thanks.
