Start Menu =>
Settings =>
Control Panel =>
System (applet) =>
Advanced (tab) =>
Environment Variables (button) =>
New (button)
Though it's not short, "quite lengthy" sounds longer than I find it
in practice.
Though it might be nice if setup.exe had a button that opened a
dialog to set %CYGWIN% with all the currently available options as
radio buttons. (I know: PTC.) Or since the mount table is moving
from the Registry to a file, maybe in 1.7 %CYGWIN% could be in a
text file.
