That works great, Barry.  The following also works:

   cmd /c dir /b /a: | dos2unix | xargs ls -ltd

However, variation#1

   type -pa pdfcrop | xargs cmd /c dir /b /a:

doesn't work because dir expects DOS filenames (I suspect).

Variation#2

   type -pa pdfcrop | xargs cygpath -aw | xargs cmd /c dir /b /a:

doesn't work because the backward slashes are interpretted by Escapes
by bash.

Variation#3 (on *one* line):

   type -pa pdfcrop | xargs cygpath -aw -t mixed | xargs cmd /c dir /b
   /a:

doesn't work because

   Parameter format not correct - "cygwin64"

To find out what was going on, I stuck an "echo" in front of cmd,
which yielded the following (on *one* line):

   cmd /c dir /b /a: C:/cygwin64/home/User.Name/bin/pdfcrop
   C:/cygwin64/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/pdfcrop/pdfcrop.pl
   C:/cygwin64/usr/share/texmf-dist/scripts/pdfcrop/pdfcrop.pl

I think the dir command is interpreting /cygwin64 as a command switch.
