[GAP Forum] gap and Windows Vista

[Nilo de Roock]

forum,

I am aware this is not a math related gap question but I don't know
where else to go.

The command c:/gap4r4/bin/gapw95 -L c:/gap4r4/bin/ws.gap works fine on
XP but generates the following error message on Vista: gap: sorry,
options must not be grouped '-L:'.

Vista:
C:\gap4r4\bin>gapw95 -L: "c:/gap4r4/bin/ws.gap"
gap: sorry, options must not be grouped '-L:'.
usage: gap [OPTIONS] [FILES]
       run the Groups, Algorithms and Programming system, Version 4.4.10
       use '-h' option to get help.

gap: Press <Enter> to end program

C:\gap4r4\bin>

XP: ( behaviour is as expected ).
C:\gap4r4\bin>c:/gap4r4/bin/gapw95 -L c:/gap4r4/bin/ws.gap
