Hi, A little warning to Cygwin users who also use Microsoft Bookshelf 2000 (and possibly other versions, too).
I had a long-running wget going and with the Cywin console window in which it was running the active window, I clicked the Bookshelf tray icon. Bad news--it killed the wget. One of the features of Microsoft Bookshelf 2000 is the ability to select a word and then click the Bookshelf tray icon to initiate a lookup on that word. Apparently, the interaction between Bookshelf's launcher and the console is based on simulating the typing of a CTRL-C to copy the current selection, if any, from the active window. In Cygwin, that action causes a SIGINT to be sent to the current foreground application! C'est la vie.
