My current Setting is:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Xterm here\
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Xterm here\command
    (Standard) = perl C:\MyPath\xterm.pl "%1"

xterm.pl invokes the xterm (run rxvt.exe -e bash) within a bash (should I
paste my Perl Script in here?). Problem is that %1 contains only the short
pathnames, i.e. "C:\Progra~1". This makes the prompt ugly.
Maybe your '/k' hint could be the solution. I have to check this.
