You could create a new shortcut to the cygwin.bat file and modify the cmd line in the properties of that shortcut to read: C:\CYGWIN\CYGWIN.BAT <script> <args> The line in cygwin.bat that calls bash must be modified something like this: bash --login -o vi %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 it should execute from explorer. You may have to use the full path name - I have $HOME/bin set in my $PATH in autoexec.bat so I didn't have to. Hope that's what you needed. >I want to be able to execute a bash script by double clicking on the icon >from explorer just as you can execute .bat files.
