Greetings, Lavrentiev, Anton (NIH/NLM/NCBI) [C]! > My suggestion was not an exact recipe, it was just a scheme.
> Here the exact step-by-step procedure. I've checked it works on my Windows 7 > box. > From the Windows "Start" menu, in the Search box at the bottom > (formerly called "Run") enter (substitute <YourUserName> with whatever > ID you are going by on that Windows system): > C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo > In the opened Explorer window, right click on unoccupied space on the right > hand pane, select "New"->>"Shortcut". > As prompted for "Location", enter (I assume your Cygwin installation is > at C:\cygwin): > C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -e C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -l /bin/vim.sh Just C:\Programs\CygWin\bin\mintty.exe --exec /bin/vi.exe is enough. No need to make it more convoluted, than it really necessary. Then everything else became unnecessary as well. > click "Next", when prompted for the name, enter "Vim", > close the dialog with "Finish". -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@yandex.ru) 11.02.2014, <06:33> Sorry for my terrible english... -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
