cmd.exe from Windows: no; it behaves normally
cmd.exe -> bash -> cmd.exe: same problem
OK, sounds like an environment problem then. You could probably spot
the issue by comparing the environment you get in bash with the one
you get in cmd.exe.
I watched the screencast. That's how I came to understand the
problem you were seeing. I wouldn't say I couldn't reproduce it
otherwise. I try really hard not to lie about this kind of thing. ;-)
Just making sure, you know :)
Yep.
I checked with one of my colleagues who has Cygwin installed, but he
doesn't seem to have this problem. I feel like going with a fresh
installation.
Fair enough.
