The Cygwin.bat script is specificially for this task, running a Cygwin shell from the console. This is still desired in some scenarios, especially when mixing Cygwin and native tools sometimes, this is why we never removed it. If you want to run mintty, just use the shortcut already created by setup. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
