- Subject: Executing bash commands from the bash command line
Dear All,
I am trying to create a "Bash Here" utility that will allow me to open a
Bash window in any directory by right clicking in the window and selecting
"Bash Here" (similar to the "Command Prompt Here" Microsoft Powertoys
utility). To do this I need to be able to cd to a given directory from the
bash command line, for example:
bash "cd /cygdrive/c/myfolder" where "myfolder is a variable.
How can I do this?
Thanks,
Hamish
