It is as always started with:
set CYGWIN=notitle glob check_case:strict server=1
bash -c 'rxvt -ls -e /usr/bin/bash --login -i &'
from within cygwin.bat
$ cat .Xdefaults

rxvt.cutchars: "/`"'&()*,;<=>[EMAIL PROTECTED]|}"
rxvt.meta8: true
rxvt.backspacekey: ^H

As you can see above, I'm using rxvt - I've found it superior in many ways.
NOTE: You can run it _without_ X, that is what I do.

Hmm... not as it seems from a quick test (read below).

Nah..? I didn't show it (sorry), but I ran the zz.sh script as in:
$ . ../zz.sh
from the bash prompt.

$ md zz && cd zz
$ ls -l

$ cat ../zz.sh
x=10
while [ $x -lt 20 ]; do echo -en "\r$x ";mkdir $x; x=`expr $x + 1`; done
for d in *; do echo -en "\r$d ";touch $d/aaa-$d; touch $d/bbb-$d; done
command ls -d * | while read d; do /bin/echo -e "\n-$d-"; ls $d ; done
$ . ../zz.sh
