Options for the CYGWIN environment variable
[no]title - display command line of currently running process in
 console title. (default: disabled)
[no]strip_title - works in conjunction with 'title'. Strips the path
 spec from what is displayed in the console title bar
 when the program is run. (default: disabled)
[no]tty - makes consoles more UN*X-like which improves
 compatibility with UN*X apps but may cause problems
 with non cygwin apps. (default: disabled)
[no]binmode - use 'binmode' as the default open mode when the mode
 is not otherwise specified in the open or by mount.
 Does not affect pipes and path specs like //c/foo.
 (default: disabled)
[no]glob - do not perform globbing operations on the command
 line when a cygwin process is being invoked from a
 non-cygwin shell. (default: disabled ?)
strace - a cygwin1.dll debugging aid. Setting mask to '1'
 will cause reams of information about the operation
 of cygwin to be written to 'file' as cygwin
 operates. The rest of the bits control the display
 various cygwin subsystems. For a complete list check
 out /usr/include/sys/strace.h. The cache setting
 controls how much strace output will be held in
 memory before being output to disk.
If you run Sergey Okhapkin's patched cygwin1.dll (coolview), more
options are available:
[no]ntea - use extended file attributes on Windows NT.
 (default: disabled)
[no]mixed - create case-sensitive filenames on ntfs partitions.
 (default: disabled)
