You're welcome! I'm glad that it helps out. I still have a lot more I
want to do with it. For example, I have an idea about how the Cygwin is
supposed to work (and it's not a pure Cygwin-only install).

Yeah, that was a tip that I found in the prior version that I tried to
bring out more. Seeing Jason's email (later in this thread), I
understand where the error is coming from and will work to update the
