Re: cygwin's emacs

["George Hester" <hesterloli at hotmail dot com>]

OK someone sent me a FAQ which did do the trick.  In the cygwin.bat file in C:\cygwin I entered this before the call to the bash shell:

Set CYGWIN=tty notitle glob

Are there any gotchas here?  tty seems amenable enough as does notitle.  But the one that has me worried is glob.  I don't want my cygwin globbing anything into "Not Working" if I can help it.  Thanks.
