> Hi,
> this bug is similar to my previously reported bug #33791. I'm running
> Emacs 26.1 (with the patched files.el that fixed that bug[1]) on Windows
> 10. I've replicated this with "emacs -Q".

> When using eshell connected to a GNU/Linux machine, `eshell/cp' and
> `eshell/mv' (which are called in eshell with the commands "cp" and "mv")
> both return an "Invalid argument" error when the source and destination
> are relative paths on the remote machine.
>
> Recipe:
> - connect to GNU/Linux machine using plink:
>     /plink:jordan@domain.com:/home/jordan/
> - cp/mv a file between locations on the remote machine
>     /plink:jordan@domain.com:/home/jordan $ cp file.txt directory/
> - returns:
>    Opening output file: Invalid argument, 
> c:/plink:jordan@domain.com:/home/jordan/file.txt
>
> I'm guessing it's a problem of not correctly handling the relative TRAMP
> paths, as it works if provided the full paths for the source and
> destination.

> Thanks.
