Subject:	Cygwin exe magic does not understand .com extension?
MIME-Version:	1.0
X-IsSubscribed:	yes

Greetings, All!

$ mode<Tab>
mode.com     modemui.dll  modex.dll

$ mode
bash: mode: command not found

Now, I see two issues.
First, it is that it see .dll files as executables. Which is true in essence,
but rather suspicious, as .dll files are normally not directly executable.
Would really like an explanation for this behavior.

Second, is that it actually see mode.com, but unable to execute it.

P.S.
$ set | grep PATHEXT
PATHEXT='.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH;.PSC1'
