In general it's impossible without some heuristics or application knowledge. For one example on how to do this, see the java* wrapper scripts that I posted to this list a while ago (e.g., <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-01/msg00174.html> or see them in CVS at <http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/wrappers/java/?cvsroot=cygwin-apps>).
