I like your turn of phrase!
with Cygwin because frankly, it sucks
hard. I suspect that I am not alone.
No you are not, but I would like to quibble with your teminology.
The "Windows terminal" thingy that cmd.exe normally runs in is more
accurately termed a "console window". It is not tied to cmd.exe. You can
run bash in a console window if you want (eg type "bash" at the "Run..."
prompt) and you can run cmd.exe in an rxvt window. But I do these things
as little as possible...
So I agree with your advice: if you want to run Cygwin applications like
emacs in "no window" mode, use an rxvt terminal instead of a console window.
