   My suggestion would be to check whether `cygpath` is on the PATH or detect cygwin using `uname -s`. If a path doesn't work, try to run it through `cygpath --windows ` and try again.
   
   Something like using this everywhere:
   
       File path = resolveLocalPath(...)
   
   and then having code like this in resolveLocalPath():
   
       if file.exists() return file;
       if (cygwin) { // cygwin
           String mightWork = runOSCommand("cygpath", "--windows", file.toString());
           File f = new File(mightWork);
           if (f.exists()) { return file)
       }
   
   `uname -s` returns `CYGWIN_NT-10.0-19042`. I suggest to check for `String.startsWith("CYGWIN")`
