#98 Start cygwin bash in selected folder

[Anonymous]

Originally created by: isi.isen...@gmail.com

This command starts the cygwin bash in the selected folder. The command
works similar to the console command.

Assumptions to have command working:
1) Cygwin is installed in "c:\cygwin"
2) Make sure, the /etc/profile file checks CHERE_INVOKING (see below)
before changing to the $HOME directory. This should be the default, but in
some installations I did'nt found the check. So I just mention it here for
completeness.

CHERE_INVOKING check in /etc/profile (at the very end of file):
#Make sure we start in home unless invoked by CHERE
if [ ! -z "${CHERE_INVOKING}" ]; then
  unset CHERE_INVOKING
else
  cd "${HOME}"
fi

Command definitions for StExBar:
Name: Bash
Icon: C:\cygwin\cygwin.ico
Command line: c:\cygwin\bin\bash -c "cd '%curdir'; export
CHERE_INVOKING=1; exec /bin/bash --login -i"
