But it's a default system shell which is used to launch applications from other shells, like Far manager. And THAT is what makes up for what cmd lacking in usability. Unfortunately, certain things still killing the uasability of cygwin environment when used that way, and even having 4NT (/TakeCommandConsole) replacing the cmd does not help alot... :( > Anyway, that should be fixed now in CVS.
