Subject: Open bash at the current explorer directory?
Hello,
I am using Win2000 Pro, SP3. Is there a way to invoke an interactive bash
shell at a particular directory, without using a .bashrc or similar file?
I.e. on the command lie alone? The --login and -c options appear to be
mutually exclusive. I would like to be able browse quickly to a directory
with explorer, option/right click on the directory, then select a custom
"open with cygwin" option, and have the bash shell open at that
directory. Has anyone tried this?
