Cygwin doesn't have any command line editing capabilities, I'm aware 
of.

Depending on your application and regarding your experience ("since at 
least 1979...")

"man readline",

"man zshzle",

"man (x)emacs",

"man vim" 

should be sufficient. Also have a look at the info pages (if you're 
using pinfo...).
