I'm having two problems with 'rsync' (over 'ssh'), that are

Here's the portion of the 'bash' script I use to run 'rsync':

Andy,
I hope I've got this right, but lately I seem to be so confused by the
subtle
differences between Cygwin 1.5 & 1.7, that I'm not sure.
I believe that the settings we had previously discussed to get 'less' to
accept

stopped working with t
synch start.
In brief, it would be very nice if there was a cygstart option that did
not exit
until the command which it starts exits. Is this possible?

Hi, I've taken a first pass at distilling my experience with
'mintty' and the [ahem] discussion, here, about it into a text
file (see attachment mintty.{h})
If there is an affinity to it, I would be happy to plug this all
into a valid man template.

I remember that in past versions of Windows, 'cmd.exe' imposed a
draconianly short command line on Cygwin console. I was wondering
whether the limitation applied to Xterm windows, as well. I have become
quite adept at using xargs to avoid this limit. However, I was writing

I've tried:

Where 'Ys.in' is a file containing a bunch of 'Y's, which is what 'sc'
is waiting for.
'sc' ignores the file and waits for me to type 'Y
