- Subject: Starting bash in directory
Hi,
Cygwin installation creates a shortcut that runs bash like this:
bash -i --login
However, I would like to start bash so that after starting it would
go to a specific directory. For instance, I would like to run something
like:
bash -i --login "cd d:\users"
so that bash would start and then execute "cd d:\users" before the user
starts typing anything. This would be equivalent to the WinNT command:
cmd /k "cd d:\users"
Do you guys know if that's possible?
Thanks,
Maurício
