I have the following in a shortcut to launch rxvt (an excellent terminal no DOS window needed): C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -sl 1000 -fn "Lucida Console-11" -g 80x40 -bg black -fg grey -title Yakima +sb -e /bin/bash --login -i Similarly I have another shortcut that opens up a remote shell on a linux box elsewhere. With ssh keys properly setup the connection happens in one seamless click. C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -sl 1000 -fn "Lucida Console-11" -g 80x40 -bg black -fg grey -title Pauite +sb -e /bin/ssh www.vdomck.org By doing some registry edits you can also get right click menus to include "bash here" or "vim file". I am a Linux guy trapped in a very good .NET Windows GUI programming job. Cygwin keeps me sane...
