Well, in any case, I've managed to get this working, although it
required both a BAT script and a Bash script. Weird.
With "emacsclientbat.bat":
--------------
@echo off
c:\cygwin\bin\bash -l -c "emacsclienttocyg "%1""
--------------
And "emacsclienttocyg":
--------------
#! /bin/bash
path="$@"
emacsclient -n -a textpad "$(cygpath -u "$path")"
-------------
And the resulting command line:
c:\cygwin\home\<myuid>\bin\emacsclientbat.bat "{path-slashes}"
