Attached is a bash script, renamed as openurl.sh.txt, which will open
a url with either the default browser or Internet Explorer. It takes
care of the case when CYGWIN_NOWINPATH=1, and where COMSPEC does not
exist in the environment or does not point to an executable program or
when /cygdrive/c/ does not point to the C: disk.

Before using, strip CRs (just in case) using d2u (or dos2unix), rename
to openurl or openurl.sh or ..., place in your path, eg. $HOME/bin and
make executable.

HTH,
Doug
