UltraEdit is not a Cygwin application.  How on earth do you expect it to
understand something beginning in /cygdrive?  Look into cygpath.
I know cygpath, but it is easier to just type in DOS path than to use cygpath each time.

gvim is a Cygwin application.
I download gvim myself from vim web site and installed it, it is not the one in cygwin package. This is the reason I think the application does not have to be from cygwin package.
