I run pdflatex using cygstart from cygwin. This process a file to produce a
.pdf document. I need to retain control in the spawned window until the
pdflatex process has completed, and then return to the cygwin process. How
can I retain control in the cygstart spawned window until the spawned
process has completed (synchronous processing)?

Dear Paul,
pdflatex is included in cygwin
$ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/pdflatex
texlive-collection-latex-20130529-1
why do you need to run it with cygstart that is used
to lanch not-cygwin programs ?
Regards
Marco
