Yes.
In general, you should set the CYGWIN environment variable before you
run any Cygwin processes.
This means that you have to either start a console window:
C:\>set CYGWIN=tty
C:\>c:\wherever\bin\bash
bash$
or you have to use some other method for ensuring that the environment
variable is set in "Windows space". On NT, you do this via
Control Panel->System->Environment Variables
On 9x, you could put this in your autoexec.bat. Dunno how to do this
on ME.
