Also, the above does not handle the issue of the user's startup scripts. Here's what I have: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\BashHere] @="B&ash this!" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\BashHere\command] @="rxvt -e bash -c \"cd '%1';exec bash -rcfile ~/.bash_login\"" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\BashHere] @="B&ash this!" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\BashHere\command] @="rxvt -e bash -c \"cd '%1';exec bash -rcfile ~/.bash_login\"" Note if you do not wish to use rxvt then simply remove the "rxvt -e " portion. This also makes the assumption that Cygwin's bin is in your Windows System Environment variable PATH (which is should be, especially if you use inetd) and that you've appropriately named your bash startup stuff .bash -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
