Remember - this can't be the same behaviour as for bash on U*ix systems.
It all depends on the terminal handling of the underlying OS.
The terminal handling of Cygwin is far from being perfect, so you may
experience things that won't work or work different from what you read
in the docs for bash on a real Unix system.
Nevertheless try setting CYGWIN=tty - this significantly changes the
behaviour of terminal handling. Perhaps things will work better for you
then. You have to set this *before* the first Cygwin process gets
started.

Bye.
Michael.
