Re: Open Cygwin at a specific folder
When you install Cygwin (or if you’ve already installed it, download it again and start setup again to run an update), make sure that you select the `chere` package under the "Shells" category.
After Cygwin is launched, open up a Cygwin terminal (as an administrator) and type the command: `chere -i -t mintty -s bash`.
Now you should have "Bash Prompt Here" in the Windows right-click context menu.
([mintty](https://code.google.com/p/mintty/) is Cygwin's default terminal. If you don't choose it with the `-t` option, your "Bash Prompt Here" will use the same terminal as the Windows Command Prompt, which prevents horizontal resizing.)
