Simply fix them and move on ....

BTW, I would never run an emulator like Cygwin on Windows. It is too easy to build a linux box and run the real thing !
Yes, very helpful.
Sometimes you don't have a choice of OS, and in those times, it's good to have Cygwin.
Personally, I couldn't survive my .NET job in an all Windows environment, if it wasn't for it.




If you're running Cygwin from a Windows shortcut, make sure the "Starting folder" field in its Properies points to the right place. That's the CWD when the session starts.
