Whenever I start cygwin, I need to cd several levels down to the only directory that I care about when using cygwin. How can I get cygwin to start in this particular directory by default...i.e., each time I start Cygwin it will be in that directory already? Cygwin seems to ignore the "Start In: " option in the Windows Preferences for this application.
