Does Cygwin have any support for BSD file flags (UF_* flags, such as UF_HIDDEN, etc.)? These flags are often used to provide support for Windows file attributes (FILE_ATTRIBUTE_*, such as FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN).
OSX and FreeBSD provide such support during stat(2) and chflags(2). I expect that Cygwin does not have such support, but wanted to double-check. https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=chflags&apropos=0&sektion=2&manpa th=FreeBSD+11.1-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html Bill
