modern windows terminal + powershell is, (un?)fortunately superior to cygwin's, so cut this for simplification

@ -187,29 +187,6 @@ Modern Windows terminal emulators such as `Cmder <https://cmder.app/>`_ or
`Windows Terminal <https://github.com/microsoft/terminal>`_ provide a better
experience by providing more scrollback and larger window sizes.
**Note for Cygwin/msysgit users**: It is also possible to compile DFHack from a
Bash command line. This has three potential benefits:
* When you've installed Git and are using its Bash, but haven't added Git to your path:
* You can load Git's Bash and as long as it can access Perl and CMake, you can
use it for compile without adding Git to your system path.
* When you've installed Cygwin and its SSH server:
* You can now SSH in to your Windows install and compile from a remote terminal;
very useful if your Windows installation is a local VM on a \*nix host OS.
* In general: you can use Bash as your compilation terminal, meaning you have a decent
sized window, scrollback, etc.
* Whether you're accessing it locally as with Git's Bash, or remotely through
Cygwin's SSH server, this is far superior to using ``cmd.exe``.
You don't need to do anything special to compile from Bash. As long as your PATHs
are set up correctly, you can run the same generate- and build/install/package- bat
files as detailed above.
