I don't know why you're >not seeing that. For the archives: For a while, I had chere installed but it had mysteriously stop showing up in the context menu. (It wasn't clear what had changed. Reinstalling didn't fix it. And it appeared that the registry entries were OK.) I got similar functionality via the SendTo menu. I put a shortcut into my SendTo folder: C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo\ The target was: C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe "%L" It would open the containing folder for the highlighted file or folder. BTW, chere started working again when they gave me a new box. - Barry Disclaimer: Statements made herein are not made on behalf of NIAID.

Re: BashHere Prompt
Possibly not. Mine certainly isn't bundled up as nicely. It was just a Q&D hack I put together eons ago. Mine allows you to right-click on both the folder and the drive letter. I wasn't aware of chere, so I've tried installing it today. I'm not seeing the context menus in Explorer in my Win7 VM, so I can't tell if it does the same thing. Mine does have the vulnerability if the bhere.bat file is deleted/missing from c:\cygwin, it will produce an error.

It doesn't really bundle in to a package, nor is it something that would be included with the DLL, so I'm not clear on how else to contribute this. If anyone would like to look at it, I've hosted it on my Google Drive at https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9Lha7Y9_doHUENLV3ZDV0JHS3M Thanks, any functional difference from chere https://github.com/mirror/chere that David already packaged ?

Any advantages to your utility?
