Are you sure you need to use the Sigwin terminal? You can probably get away with running a regular command window, and then running the program from there.

The lab PI suggested using cygwin to run the program. However, I ran into a few problems trying to use cygwin. When I open the cygwin terminal, I cannot get jaws (version 12) to read the output of what I type. The only way I can get such information is by pressing insert+b to read the whole window, or by selecting the entire window and pasting it into notepad. It doesn't even seem like the terminal is doing anything when I enter inputs (though I know it is doing something). Does anyone have any suggestions for anything I can do to start to get the terminal to behave more like an actual command line with jaws?
