   Of course they're slower. But how much slower? I bet they're
hundred times slower (in screen output, of course) than DOS apps
(djgpp's, for example). But why make them times more slower?
Aproximative tests:

ls'ing directory with 256 entries (all dirs) (seconds)

ls
   pw32              win95/P5-100/24            0.7
   linux 2.0         P5-150/48                  0.02
   Cygwin b20.1      win95/P5-100/24            2.42

ls -l
   pw32              win95/P5-100/24            5.42
   linux 2.0         P5-150/48                  2.82
   Cygwin b20.1      win95/P5-100/24            13.28

where pw32 is my implementation
