Why are you starting emacs from cygwin.bat?
I am not.
You are the one that suggested that by using it one would avoid the cmd.exe box.
And the only time that is a problem is when starting up cygwin and only then.
'run.exe' is designed to be run directly from the Windows GUI (not from
any console/terminal). If you've already started a console or terminal,
it's really not needed.
Why would you use a MS Windows GUI to run a cygwin program?
I guess you got confused since there were two different points being
discussed.
Regarding the dos box, when starting cygwin initially. Because we
already have a putty terminal emulator which is superior.
