Ahhh, most cool.  That command with switches works from 
the cygwin bash prompt, but not from the DOS prompt, 
which tells me it wouldn't work from a batch file.  The 
following does work from DOS:

h:\cygwin\bin\rxvt -e /bin/bash --
rcfile /cygdrive/h/.bashrc -i

But the following does not:

h:\cygwin\bin\rxvt -e /bin/csh --login --
rcfile /cygdrive/h/.bashrc -i

The difference being that "--login" breaks...  Any
idea why --login es no bueno?  Is --login really
needed?

Thanks!
