- Subject: Opening new cygwin window with arguments
What I want to do is open a new cygwin window with a tail command, so
I have the parent process still running, and this runoff process in
another window. I've found cygstart, but I can't figure out the syntax
to do essentially this:
cygstart sh "tail -f foo"
Any help would be appreciated
