Context menu without chere #371

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I've created a small project that registers a context menu, that looks just 
like the 'Open command window here' already build into Windows Explorer, but is 
registered with the name 'Open cygwin window here'.

I suggest it be added to the Tips section of the Wiki.

The project is found here: https://github.com/Genbox/CygwinContextMenu
and a compiled binary is here: 
https://github.com/Genbox/CygwinContextMenu/raw/master/Compiled/CygwinContextMen
u.exe

Simply run the application, and then it can be deleted as it only creates a 
mapping to mintty.exe that comes with Cygwin.

Thanks, but chere does the job fine, is a supported part of the Cygwin 
distribution, and is more flexible. The text for the context menu entry can be 
controlled with the -e option. Also, it can uninstall entries with -u.
