The two result in different logic, with > the latter having to guess it's a network path. I am right clicking on a directory name in either (tried both) the LH or RH pane of an explore.exe window. In both cases what happens Is that a new window is launched (good) with an initial title of the form "/bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe Y:\apps". After a brief pause, I see "Starting /bin/bash.exe", than another brief pause and the window title changes to "/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32" and I get a Bash command prompt. The PWD is just what the title indicates (i.e. .../system32) > You may be able to figure out what's going on by adding a few echos to /bin/xhere That a good tip. I didn't realize it was a script. I'll try that. Regards -- Charlie P.S. I'm also having trouble figuring out how to post replies to what I see on the web archive. I did NOT get any email reply to my prior post, it just showed up on the web archive (that was good). I carefully checked my spam quarantine areas several times to be sure. Actually my first post on this topic was my second attempt to post. I had to add myself to the white-list which I didn't notice at first since the white-list suggestion was stuck in MY stupid stupid Outlook spam filter (Thanks so much Outlook). In any event, I have cobbled together something that resembles a reply to an email that I have really scraped off the web archive. That seems awfully complicated. Surely I'm missing something. But I just cannot see the "Reply" button on the archive. Is this like when my wife says, its right there and points to it and yep, its really right there? :-( -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
