So if I want to have a 'bash Prompt Here' (cmd shell) and >a 'rxvt Prompt Here' I'll need two different startup files? I added these updates to my own archive including allowing any number of the 'extensions' to be installed at once and uninstalled separately. A .inf file is built on-the-fly for each extension. I also fixed the uninstall so that it doesn't leave the extra registry keys around. This seems to be a bug from the original DOS Prompt Here power toy. The file is available at www.glencoakley.org. Enter the site and find the Cygwin link. I don't recommend linking directly to it because my site host has changed twice since this I created this and I am trying to set up a system to host it myself. But, I own the domain and don't plan on changing that. You will find that the old link below still works but has NOT been updated. This is because I don't have an account with that ISP anymore but they haven't bothered to purge the files yet. >>> Fetch the original from Glen Coakley: >>> http://www.users.qwest.net/~weissj/Cygwin/CygwinAddons.html I am not on the list so please send/copy any replies to me directly.
