 At the other hand, IMHO, Windows .bat scripts are never run from wihin bash, and vice versa, UNIX .sh scripts are never run from within cmd.exe...
 And following the same logic we would need to teach our find.exe (already mentioned on this list) to understand Windows options instead of UNIX options...
 Even further, in terminal case, why have Cygwin at all ? It is different from Windows command line and this is confusing...

 Kind regards.
