Update:

I discovered that if I remove tty from CYGWIN variable the problem is
fixed.  However, emacs doesn't work correctly if its not set (C-x C-c
is interpreted as C-x C-g).   So it seems that your kinda damned if
you do damned if you don't.

Subject: handle invalid running native console app from cygwin shell
To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com


I'm trying to run a boo script from a cygwin bash shell.
http://boo.codehaus.org/
booish runs fine from cmd or powershell but from bash I get an error.
I thought maybe then I could do cmd /c booish but this doesn't work either.
Any idea how I can workaround the issue?

$ booish
Welcome to booish, an interactive interpreter for the boo programming langu=
age.
Running boo 0.9.2.3383 on CLR 2.0.50727.4927.

Enter boo code in the prompt below (or type /help).

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: The handle is invalid.
