Can some kind Soul remind me of the registry entry for
turning off NT's irritating habit of constantly updating
the title of a shell window to the program currently running
under it.
ta,
Andrew

Actually it's a feature of gnu-win32... :-)
Although I don't have any new status on beta 19 to give, I can say
that when it does come out, there will be a way to suppress this
behavior. (By setting an environment variable).
Cheers,

Actually, in the most recent version of Sergey's cygwin.dll, the default
is to not change the title of the shell window. You turn it *on* with:
set CYGWIN_TITLE=1
