Re: Console on Sourceforge with Cygwin

Actually, one problem that console (from Console-2.00b120-Beta.zip) has
is that one cannot directly give command line options to the shells that
console loads.  So if one wants the shell to be
	c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -i
or
	c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /f:on /e:on
one MUST run the shell from a batch file.

It worked just fine for me with b125. I set my "bash" tab command to "c:\cygwin\bin\bash -li". You can even pass additional arguments to the tab's command with the -r switch:


console -t bash -r "-c 'ssh somehost'"
