I am currently using CYGWIN, Git Bash, and Msysgit, plus Putty and I want to open a new window at the same location from one to another. Is there a command similar to start . or explorer . to open CYGWIN from Git Bash, or Msysgit from CYGWIN?

  • Not sure how ssh ties into this. You want to open an explorer window? From a remote login via ssh? or what...?

  • cmd /c start . would be answering cygwin to cmd. I'm trying to git-bash to cygwin

In cygwin bash, doing explorer . does open a new explorer window wherever you are at the time.

You can try to create script in your PATH to run cygwin shell directly. something about "start c:/cygwin/bin/sh"
