  i believe the biggest difference is the price :)

  if you are a student, you get the academic version, otherwise
  you pay for the full professional edition. dont know if there
  are extra bits inside the professional edition. doubt it.

  well, ls -C may not replicate dir /w exactly. but, if
  you are using cygwin, there is nothing shopping you
  having:

    cmd /C myscript.bat

  being done in your make file (ie: use cmd to process)

dir /w:
---

  [.]           [..]          [dkjr]        [dkung]       [phire]
  [hoards]      [lemmings]    [maryobros]   [oktopus]     [parashoot]
  [hexxagon]    [!unreleased] [deity3D]
                 0 File(s)              0 bytes
                               13 Dir(s)   x,xxx,xxx,xxx bytes free

ls -C:
--
  !unreleased  dkjr   hexxagon  lemmings   oktopus    phire
  deity3D      dkung  hoards    maryobros  parashoot

  i can see a visual difference straight away.. maybe your script
  is using/parsing the [] somehow?
