[INFO] Adding "Cygwin here" to Windows Explorer

[Tero Niemela]

Hi,

some of you may find this useful. I did the following,
works perfectly for me:

Last line of ~/.zlogin is:

[[ "$OSTYPE" = *cygwin* && $ARGC -eq 1 ]] && cd "$@"

And this registry settings was added to Windows
registry:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\command]
@="Cygwin Here"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\command\command]
@="\"C:\\cygwin\\bin\\zsh.exe\" -l -s \"%1\""

With these, when I right-click a folder on Windows
Explorer, one available option is "Cygwin Here" that
start Cygwin+zsh and then cd to the right-clicked directory.
