The tilde (~) isn't a file.  It is just telling you that you are in
your current home directory.  Basically it's shorthand for /home/Jerry
or whatever your home directory is.  If it shows you at ~/xastir then
you are really at /home/Jerry/xastir.

A little bit of the stuff in making xastir work in cygwin is unique -
most is the same whether you do it in Linux or cygwin.

Unix like operating systems have a very steep learning curve for those
only familiar with the Windows-based OS.  Stick with the learning and
ask questions and you'll figure it out.
