setting windows environment variables

[Jason Joines]

	I have a Cygwin BASH script which takes user input, uses ldapsearch, 
etc., to set a bunch of environment variables.  I can then use these 
from bash with no problem.  I would also like to make these environment 
variables available to the windows command interpreter.
	Is there anyway to do this?
	Also, is there a BASH equivalent of the windows cmd start command that 
lets you start many processes without having to wait on each to finish?

Thanks,
Jason Joines
