Hello,
    Typed up this one liner function for getting a files actual windows details/properties information.  I needed a tertiary way to compare executable/drivers, so a version number from windows seemed like a viable option. Hopefully someone will find this handy, seeing as i feel so guilty for not contributing more to such a wonderful project like Cygwin. 

#get file details from windows via wmic wmi formatted call condensed
finfo() { [[ -f "$(cygpath "$@")" ]] || { echo "bad-file";return 1;}; echo "$(wmic datafile where name=\""$(echo "$(cygpath -wa "$@")"|sed 's/\\/\\\\/g')"\" get /value)"|sed 's/\r//g;s/^M$//;/^$/d'|awk -F"=" '{print $1"=""\033[1m"$2"\033[0m"}';}

ex:
$ finfo notepad.exe
$ finfo "C:\windows\system32\notepad.exe"
$ finfo /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/notepad.exe
$ finfo "/cygdrive/c/Program Files/notepad.exe"
$ finfo ../notepad.exe

There is no doubt the brilliant people here could have done a better job, but like i said, i just needed to contribute something.  And if you are a gamer you might appreciate this https://github.com/jonretting/geforce-driver-check 

Cheers,
JR
