Update: I discovered that if I remove tty from CYGWIN variable the problem is fixed. However, emacs doesn't work correctly if its not set (C-x C-c is interpreted as C-x C-g). So it seems that your kinda damned if you do damned if you don't.

I thought maybe then I could do cmd /c booish but this doesn't work either. Any idea how I can workaround the issue? $ booish Welcome to booish, an interactive interpreter for the boo programming language. Running boo 0.9.2.3383 on CLR 2.0.50727.4927.
