Is it possible to pass a parameter to rxvt to start bash up in a specified
folder?
I suspect I don't know enough to construct the proper string.
I normally start rxvt from a keyboard shortcut to the command
D:\cygwin\bin\run.exe rxvt -name 17 -e /usr/bin/bash --login -i
which works fine.
I also have a registry entry to start cygwin in a specified folder from the
explorer context menu, set up so:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\BashHere]
@="bash here"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\BashHere\command]
@="D:\\cygwin\\bin\\bash.exe --login -c \"cd '%1' ; exec /bin/bash -rcfile
~/.bashrc\""
which also works fine, it's just that I'd rather invoke rxvt.
I have googled for it but not found anything obvious (but it is late Friday
afternoon here), if anyone can drop me a hint, even a better search
selection I'd appreciate it.
BTW while in the subject of registry hacking if there's any emacs fans out
there I find this rather useful too:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shell\emacs]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shell\emacs\command]
@="D:\\util\\emacs-21.3\\bin\\gnuclientw.exe \"%1\""
Hmm - the other editor I do this with is the Hessling editor (the), I was
wondering if there are any other users on list?
