Unforturnately, that's already the point at which you strayed from the 
optimum path.  Cygwin provides, to the best of everyone's ability, an 
entire Unix _environment_.  And that means you'll usually have to enter 
that environment, not just pick things out of it from the outside.

In other words: no, the Cygwin bin directory should not usually be in 
your Windows PATH.  It can be done that way with sufficient insight into 
the consequences, but you should stay away from that can of worms for now.

Actually, no such translation would have been necessary.  The general 
idea is that you would be doing this from inside the Cygwin console 
environment (i.e. click on that icon the installer created), and then 
such original Unix command lines will actually just work, without your 
needing to translate anything.
