Yeah, I couldn't figure out what character would accurately portray the 
"bib" so I left it out.  Perhaps some Arabian or Chinese character would
have worked.  It's quite a contraption.  I was thinking of bringing it 
up on this list, as it was inspired by Cygwin itself believe it or not.
So, if anyone's interested, we can talk about it here since it falls under 
the category of "all things cygwin"...  Anyone?  Hello?

Aw shucks.
