Hello list,

I generally set most of my environment variables in the System control
panel for my user, instead of in my .bashrc/.zshrc

I noticed that when I log in to Cygwin via ssh, these environment
variables are not available.

Would this be considered a misfeature?

I'll probably hack together a little powershell script and stick it in
my .zshrc to set all these env vars so that I have them for ssh.
