cygwin: 'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

[gorm]

Hi, I' have some trouble installing yeoman on a cygwin installation, and pretty sure this used to work earlier.

I have installed node for windows and installed yeoman using npm install yeoman -g from cygwin. (v. 0.9.6)

Python is also installed under cygwin, but when I run yeoman -h it complains that it can't find python.

Does anyone have an idea on what could be wrong and what I can do to fix this? It seems like yeoman is running under cmd and not under sh for some reason?

$ which python
/usr/bin/python

me@-PC ~
$ which yeoman
/cygdrive/c/Users/me/AppData/Roaming/npm/yeoman

me@-PC ~
$ yeoman -h
cygwin warning:
  MS-DOS style path detected: C:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\npm/node
  Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/Users/me/AppData/Roaming/npm/node
  CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
  Consult me user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:

AFAK, node.js does not officially support cygwin.

@btford ok, thanks, will stick to cmd then.
Edit: seems like yeoman isn't supported on Windows at all: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/yeoman-dev/fhTmMC8Q0Tk
