@subsection Is there a Cygwin port of GNU Emacs?
No. If you want NT Emacs to understand Cygwin paths, get
cygwin-mount.el from @file{http://www.emacswiki.org/elisp/index.html}.
If you want to run ``emacs -nw'', say from a remote login shell, you
can't. (The error is ``emacs: standard input is not a tty''.)
Instead, use a Cygwin version of XEmacs, from
@file{http://www.xemacs.org/}. Using ``xemacs -nw'' from a remote
shell works fine.
@subsection info error "dir: No such file or directory"
Cygwin packages install their info documentation in the /usr/info
