I posted mine in the mailing list not once, and it's not the only available
solution.

It is technically possible to invoke specific processor for a bat file, but no
Cygwin tools understand the necessary syntax. Your only option is to create
proper association(s) for your favorite extensions.
FTYPE unixshell.script="C:\Programs\Cygwin_64\bin\env.exe" -- /bin/cygwrap.sh
"%1" %*
ASSOC .sh=unixshell.script
ASSOC .awk=unixshell.script
ASSOC .pl=unixshell.script
ASSOC .whatver=unixshell.script
The wrapper is as simple as
-------->8-------->8-------->8-------->8--------
#!/bin/sh
test -z "$1" && exit 1
/bin/env -- "$(cygpath -au "$1")" "${@:2}"
--------8<--------8<--------8<--------8<--------
Don't forget to add your favorite extensions to PATHEXT, else you won't be
able to run them scripts from CMD.
