One final question problem for the group to address. Some versions of vim
install stuff
in the registry so that when you right click ANY file, you get the choice
of "Edit with vim". I have
not been able to find a simple registry hack to make that happen without
having a registered
dll. Also, it wasn't exactly clear to me how to train the VIM dll to use
something else. I must have spent
less than 5 minutes looking at it.

Has anyone figured out how to do this? I have tried just putting stuff in
the HKCR/file registry key but that
doesn't seem to do it.

You're right!  Here's an updated BashHere.reg.  One will have to edit it to
get bash invoked the way one wants.

============
You should also include "Drive" where "Directory" is below. That way, when
you right click on a drive, you can get a "Bash here" also.

I used
     f:\cyg\bin\bash.exe -i
and I had to train my .bashrc to do most of the stuff in /etc/profile to
avoid the cd $HOME issue. After that, all works as expected.

The following works for me on Win98.  Since one doesn't logon, there is no
cd to $HOME and bash starts in whatever directory Windows tells bash it is
in.  Of course, this won't work if .bashrc has a cd command in it.
