Thanks Larry, but I'm loath to waste space on this and other lists, and also
people's time by listing any of the knock-on effects of not terminating all
Cygwin processes (and resetting locks etc.) prior to firing up Cygwin again -
it seems reasonable to me that these effects would exist (I've experienced
them) but it also seems largely irrelevant to my present question to discuss
them. This is not a bug report - it is a "howto" request.

So I'll summarise my original post into a single question:

When running the latest version of Cygwin on Windows XP, what is the best simple
way of terminating all Cygwin processes, and resetting XP to effectively the
same state as it was before Cygwin was started?
