I tried a few variations of this, but didn't get it to work. Best I
could do was to have a bash window flash up for a bit.

I just tried this. It works. Awkward, but it works!!!
- Added this line to /etc/profile (a.k.a. c:/cygnus/etc/profile)
PATH="$PATH:/cygdrive/c/emacs21.1/bin"
- Click on the Cygnus icon to bring up a bash
- Type runemacs
- Open 2 files which are similar, but not too so.
- M-x ediff-buffers
- It worked!!!

Didn't even try! It's a last resort.
