Quick question - what is the proper pronunciation for "Cygwin?"
I can't think of any words in the language that have a short 'y' sound in the first syllable so I say "sigh-gwin".
Other than Cygnus? Cygnus Solutions originally made Cygwin (before Red Hat bought them). Cygnus is pronounced 'sig-n&s according to m-w.com, so I'd assume Cygwin is pronounced accordingly.
