Hi,
I was poking around the Cygwin site and noticed the 'acronym' section. The section should be called 'abbreviations'. Acronyms are a subset of abbreviations that a person can say like a word, like squares are a subset of rectangles. All acronyms are abbreviations but not vice versa. CIA is an abbreviation, NASA is an acronym.
Embi, but yowtwit!
