REM Windows paths may contain a colon (:) as a part of drive designation and 
REM backslashes (example c:\, g:\). However, in rsync syntax, a colon in a 
REM path means searching for a remote host. Solution: use absolute path 'a la unix', 
REM replace backslashes (\) with slashes (/) and put -/cygdrive/- in front of the 
REM drive letter:
REM 
REM Example : C:\WORK\* --> /cygdrive/c/work/*
REM 
REM Example 1 - rsync recursively to a unix server with an openssh server :
REM
REM       rsync -r /cygdrive/c/work/ remotehost:/home/user/work/
REM
REM Example 2 - Local rsync recursively 
REM
REM       rsync -r /cygdrive/c/work/ /cygdrive/d/work/doc/
REM
REM Example 3 - rsync to an rsync server recursively :
REM    (Double colons?? YES!!)
REM
REM       rsync -r /cygdrive/c/doc/ remotehost::module/doc

REM Rsync is a very powerful tool. Please look at documentation for other options.
