Hi,

Is there a way to run cygwin from a regular dos prompt?  Must I log in to the
bash shell in order to use the stuff (like g++ flex bison) in cygwin?  

I think that if I run things directly under the c:\cygwin\bin or other
directories within c:\cygwin, then certain things work.  I noticed that make
works under some directories and not others.  

I have a bunch of bison and flex files in the directory c:\bfeg . 
I'd like to run bison and flex on these files.  What is a good way to do this? 
With or without the bash shell, please help me understand how to run cygwin
most effectively to accomplish my goals.  Thank you.
