Hmm. I was going to point you to <http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/run/>, but it seems the page is temporarily unavailable. You can still take a look at the Google cache version at <http://google.com/search?q=cache:www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/run/> or the one in the Internet Archive at <http://web.archive.org/web/20030219090138/http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/run/>, though.
