I have determined that modifying the registry entry to: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\bashrxvt] @="&Open BASH Shell Here" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\bashrxvt\command] @="C:\\cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe \"%L\"" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\bashrxvt] @="&Open BASH Shell Here" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\bashrxvt\command] @="C:\\cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe - e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe \"%L\""
...fixes the problem. But this is lame. I know Windows explorer is supposed to pass the location to minty, so why do I need to jump through these hoops? Does anybody have any understanding of what is going on? -Kevin > -----Original Message----- > Behalf Of Roe, Kevin L. > Sent: Monday, November 29, 2010 11:12 AM > Subject: 1.7.7: Open BASH Shell Here goes to wrong location > > > > I have set up a registry entry: > > [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\bashrxvt] > @="&Open BASH Shell Here" > [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\bashrxvt\command] > @="C:\\cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe -" > [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\bashrxvt] > @="&Open BASH Shell Here" > [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\bashrxvt\command] > @="C:\\cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe -" > > This creates the BASH Shell here links in Explorer, but there is a > problem. > > When I try to use it, it goes to the wrong location. > > When I use it in the directory tree side (left side) it always goes to > the /cygdrive/c/Windows/system32 directory > > When I use it in the Directory side (right side) it always goes to one > level below what I am selecting. > > Any ideas? > > Kevin -- 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
