Subject: Open bash at the current explorer directory?


Hello,

I am using Win2000 Pro, SP3.   Is there a way to invoke an interactive bash 
shell at a particular directory, without using a .bashrc or similar file? 
I.e. on the command lie alone?  The --login and -c options appear to be 
mutually exclusive.  I would like to be able browse quickly to a directory 
with explorer, option/right click on the directory, then select a custom 
"open with cygwin" option, and have the bash shell open at that 
directory.  Has anyone tried this?
