Re: MinTTY

I think the only reason to use cygwin.bat is to set the cygwin environment variable before bash starts. There's no way to do that with a shortcut is there?

In this case, it could be one of MinTTY's settings, because it can set up the environment before calling bash.


For that matter, MinTTY could also provide GUI access to bash command line flags, a way to change the login shell by modifying /etc/passwd, etc.
