<para><envar>(no)traverse</envar> - This option only affects NT systems.
If set, Cygwin handles file permissions so that the parent directories'
permissions are checked, as it's default on POSIX systems. If not set,
only the file's own permissions are taken into account. This is the
default on Windows and called "bypass traverse checking". Beginning with
version 1.5.13, traverse checking (as on POSIX) is enabled by default.
If you want to switch off traverse checking for Cygwin processes and child
processes started from Cygwin processes, you have to set "notraverse".</para>

<para><envar>(no)tty</envar> - if set, Cygwin enables extra support
(i.e., termios) for UNIX-like ttys.
It is not compatible with some Windows programs.
