Did you restart your Cygwin session?

Oh well. I obviously misdiagnosed the situation, since you'd said the problem was that output didn't appear. That probably means that cleartool is using console-specific output functions. 'conin' does not address that. Are you getting no output from cleartool at all or is it just that the prompt that doesn't appear? Any reaction if you enter a command anyway?
