Passing command line arguments to cygwin (rsync)

Question

I need to pass commands to cygwin, to do an rsync for a specific folder. How would I start rsync through cygwin? I'm aware of the .bat file method (as decribed here) but that's not really efficient for let's say multithreading and neither's it's neat.

If cygwin doesn't support this, are there any alternatives which do?

Answer 1

I just found out, in the cygwin directory (standard: C:\cygwin\bin\) there's a file rsync.exe (if installed through the cygwin installer). This can ran through the cmd with rsync's normal parameters.
