Subject: [ruby-talk:21637] Re: Problem with directory? Re: Path walking on windows

It runs without detecting an error, but it misidentifies actual 
directories as normal files.
(Again, this is on a Win95 4.00.950 B system.)
$ ruby -v
ruby 1.6.3 (2001-03-19) [i386-cygwin]

(Though it doesn't matter whether I run ruby under dos or 
cygwin, or even directly from RubyWin .. the exact same result 
obtains.)
