It doesn't matter who calls a process, it doesn't change the

As far as I know, nobody supports Cygwin like this.


I see, thank you.

Compiled from a Cygwin prompt this prints nothing. So I thought to add 
versions: [ "Cygwin" ] to dub.json, but dub refuses.



Error: version identifier `Cygwin` is reserved and cannot be set


Is there any way to force Cygwin or should I resign to creating an 
alternative lowercase "cygwin" version?


The use-case is to version stdout.flush() here and there to counter that 
the default Cygwin terminal (mintty) doesn't update when text is written 
to the terminal. I forget the reason why it doesn't.
