I have script lets say: C:\foo.bsh I want to be able to run this command via the windows run command by hitting either: Start -> Run or Windows Key + R
and type something small like 'foo' and hitting return. In addition, I do not want a cmd prompt to be visible. This script does some pre-processing for an IDE. I do not want the cmd prompt to be open for the lifetime of the IDE process. I have tried: 1) Creating a bat file with the following contents: c:\cygwin\bin\bash --login "C:\foo.bsh" (this fails because it keeps a cmd open) 2) Converting the above bat file to an exe using bat_2_exe_converter (does not make the cmd silent) Is there a more integrated cygwin way to do this?
