Sorry I forgot to included in my previous email that cygstart can load Windows shortcuts. This might be useful to you if the working directory is always the same. But be careful that the LNK file is a real Windows shortcut (though perhaps created by mkshortcut) and not a cygwin symbolic link. My apologies for the wasted bandwidth. - Barry
