For all of the above you probably wouldn't find anything in bash
built-in help docs. You would find it in the man page for bash. Type
'man bash' in a cygwin window and you will find both -l and -c defined
there. Just for reference...
-l - Make bash act as if it had been invoked as a login shell.
--login - Same as -l.
-c string - If the -c option is present then commands are read from
string. if there are arguments after the string, they are assigned to
the positional parameters, starting with $0.
