Change
 C:\cygwin\cygwin.bat  (assuming default install path)
to your fulfill your needs.

 You have to make sure that you start "tcsh" with the apropriate
flags/options to make it a "login shell".

This really isn't a cygwin issue (i.e. not a subject for this mailing list),
so please read up on it using e.g:

 $ info tcsh
 $ man tchs

 http://www.google.com/ > "+tchs +login +shell" might give you good info.
You might also find something special by adding " site:cygwin.com" here.
