in thread control-C to "jumpstart" windows process

I have cygwin and use it a lot. I don't use bash (too many things it just doesn't do well under Win32). But I brought up the "bash" prompt since you didn't appear to actually know anything, just make claims about what you don't know. (:

The "bash prompt" has exactly the same behavior with regard to mark/select mode and pausing output. You can even turn on "QuickEdit" mode for it.

    Sorry, I tend to forget my experiences while working on Windows rather quickly - and, it's been a few months... My usual mode of working within cygwin was to immediately start up X with an xterm, which definitely doesn't have a quick-edit mode and therefore doesn't display that behavior. Having left that out of my earlier statement makes it misleading, so apologies.
