I am wondering which path should be set in "Interpreter path" area in Run/Debug Configurations in IntelliJ, to complie and run bash script.
Using IntelliJ 15.0.3 on Windows 7
You must have a shell installed.
I have Git installed, so I use the path to the git shell.
Something like C:\Program Files\Git\bin\sh.exe.
I use also the --login -i flags for the "Interpreter options" field.
If you want to use the Windows CMD.exe you have to set:
Interpreter path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\CMD.exe (or wherever your cmd.exe is located)
Interpreter options: /C
Working directory: path/to/your/project
in the IntelliJ run config.
(Tested with IntelliJ 2017.3)
In Ubuntu,
Interrupter path can be set to: /bin/bash
On Windows 10 you can also use PowerShell.
Interpreter path: c:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Interpreter options: -Command
Working directory: path/to/your/project
For gitbash as your interpreter i found 2 ways
1.- For "BashSupport" plugin in intellij
Type Ctrl + Alt + S to go to settings
Search for Bash Support or go to "Languages & Frameworks->BashSupport"
In "Default Interpreter" put the path for gitbash
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe
Then right click on the script to run and click on Edit script
Then click in "Use project interpreter"
Then in "Interpreter options" put
--login -i --
2.- For "Shell Script" plugin in Intellij
First set gitbash as your terminal
Ctrl + Alt + S to go to settings
Search for Terminal or go to "Tools->Terminal"
In "Shell path" put
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe
Then Right click on the script to run and click on Edit script
Then in "Interpreter path" put
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe
Then in "Interpreter options" put
-login -i --
How can I launch a new Git Bash window with a specified working directory using a script (either Bash or Windows batch)?
My goal is to launch multiple Git Bash windows from a single script, each set to a different working directory. This way I can quickly get to work after booting the computer instead of having to open Git Bash windows and navigating each one to the correct working directory.
I am not asking how to change the default working directory, like this question does, but to launch one or more terminal windows with different working directories from a script.
Another option is to create a shortcut with the following properties:
Target should be:
"%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login
Start in is the folder you wish your Git Bash prompt to launch into.
Try the --cd= option. Assuming your GIT Bash resides in C:\Program Files\Git it would be:
"C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe" --cd="e:\SomeFolder"
If used inside registry key, folder parameter can be provided with %1:
"C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe" --cd="%1"
Git Bash uses cmd.exe for its terminal plus extentions from MSYS/MinGW which are provided by sh.exe, a sort of cmd.exe wrapper. In Windows you launch a new terminal using the start command.
Thus a shell script which launches a new Git Bash terminal with a specific working directory is:
(cd C:/path/to/dir1 && start sh --login) &
(cd D:/path/to/dir2 && start sh --login) &
An equivalent Windows batch script is:
C:
cd \path\to\dir1
start "" "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login
D:
cd \path\to\dir2
start "" "%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe" --login
To get the same font and window size as the Git Bash launched from the start menu, it is easiest to copy the start menu shortcut settings to the command console defaults (to change defaults, open cmd.exe, left-click the upper left icon, and select Defaults).
Let yet add up to the answer from #Drew Noakes:
Target:
"C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe" --cd=C:\GitRepo
The cd param should be one of the options how to specify the working directory.
Also notice, that I have not any --login param there: Instead, I use another extra app, dedicated just for SSH keys: Pageant (PuTTY authentication agent).
Start in:
C:\GitRepo
The same possible way, as #Drew Noakes mentioned/shown here sooner, I use it too.
Shortcut key:
Ctrl + Alt + B
Such shortcuts are another less known feature in Windows. But there is a restriction: To let the shortcut take effect, it must be placed somewhere on the User's subdirectory: The Desktop is fine.
If you do not want it visible, yet still activatable, place this .lnk file i.e. to the quick launch folder, as that dir is purposed for such shortcuts. (no matter whether displayed on the desktop) #76080 #3619355
"\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\"
In addition, Win10 gives you an option to open git bash from your working directory by right-clicking on your folder and selecting GitBash here.
Windows 10
This is basically #lengxuehx's answer, but updated for Win 10, and it assumes your bash installation is from Git Bash for Windows from git's official downloads.
cmd /c (start /b "%cd%" "C:\Program Files\GitW\git-bash.exe") && exit
I ended up using this after I lost my context-menu items for Git Bash as my command to run from the registry settings. In case you're curious about that, I did this:
Create a new key called Bash in the shell key at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell
Add a string value to Icon (not a new key!) that is the full path to your git-bash.exe, including the git-bash.exe part. You might need to wrap this in quotes.
Edit the default value of Bash to the text you want to use in the context menu
Add a sub-key to Bash called command
Modify command's default value to cmd /c (start /b "%cd%" "C:\Program Files\GitW\git-bash.exe") && exit
Then you should be able to close the registry and start using Git Bash from anywhere that's a real directory. For example, This PC is not a real directory.
This is the command which can be executed directly in Run dialog box (shortcut is win+R) and also works well saved as a .bat script:
cmd /c (start /d "/path/to/dir" bash --login) && exit
I'm not familiar with Git Bash but assuming that it is a git shell (such as git-sh) residing in /path/to/my/gitshell and your favorite terminal program is called `myterm' you can script the following:
(cd dir1; myterm -e /path/to/my/gitshell) &
(cd dir2; myterm -e /path/to/my/gitshell) &
...
Note that the parameter -e for execution may be named differently with your favorite terminal program.
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to any directory you want, type "cmd" in the address bar it will open Windows command prompt in that directory.
Along the same lines, if you have the git directory in your path, you can type "git-bash" in the address bar and a Git Shell will open in that directory.
If using Windows OS :
Right click on git terminal > Properties
Properties>Under shortcut tab>Start in:
add your folder target path like below image
How can I create a Cygwin shortcut that will open Cygwin at a specific folder? This would obviate having to type
cd /cygdrive/c/Users/Tom/Desktop/
each time I launch Cygwin.
When you install Cygwin (or if you’ve already installed it, download it again and start setup again to run an update), make sure that you select the chere package under the "Shells" category.
After Cygwin is launched, open up a Cygwin terminal (as an administrator) and type the command: chere -i -t mintty -s bash.
Now you should have "Bash Prompt Here" in the Windows right-click context menu.
(mintty is Cygwin's default terminal. If you don't choose it with the -t option, your "Bash Prompt Here" will use the same terminal as the Windows Command Prompt, which prevents horizontal resizing.)
Here's what I use. It doesn't require chere package or registry tinkering. Works on Windows 7.
Go to your "Send To" folder:
C:\Users\<your_user_name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
Create a shortcut named Bash Here having this in the Target field:
C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe -l -c "cd \"$0\" ; exec bash"
In the Windows Explorer, you right-click on a folder & select Send To > Bash Here.
And here's the opposite trick, opening a Windows Explorer in your current bash dir. Create this alias:
alias winx='/cygdrive/c/Windows/explorer.exe /e,\`cygpath -w .\`'
Note: the cygpath -w . part above is enclosed in back-ticks.
Now just type winx at the bash prompt, and a Win Explorer pops up there.
Note: If winx directs you to your documents folder, try
alias winx='/cygdrive/c/Windows/explorer.exe /e,`cygpath -w $PWD`'
From the cygwin terminal, run this command:
echo "cd your_path" >> ~/.bashrc
The .bashrc script is run when you open a new bash session. The code above with change to the your_path directory when you open a new cygwin session.
I made a .reg file that puts an "Open Cygwin Here" option in the right-click context menu.
It depends on the Cygwin "chere" package, which you can install using apt-cyg if you didn't install it in the initial setup.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash]
#="Open Cygwin Here"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash\command]
#="C:\\cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe"
For cygwin64 or installations without chere you can use the following command in a registry entry (assuming windows due to your path, also assuming cygwin installation directory is c:\cygwin64)
C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe /bin/sh -lc 'cd "`cygpath "%V"`"; bash'
Works on Windows 7 and 8

If you want to have that directory as your default, simply add a cd statement to your ~/.profile file.
What I tend to do is use that method to set my usual directory, plus define aliases for my common cases as well:
alias tom="cd /users/tom"
or your equivalent. This lets me change directories very fast.
As two7s_clash said you first need to install chere package and setup mintty:
Open Cygwin terminal as administrator
apt-cyg install chere
chere -i -t mintty
You are now able to open cygwin in specific directory with a Right mouse click in Windows Explorer (Context Menu) and select "Bash Prompt Here".
You can also open cygwin from a specific directory using windows command prompt:
Open windows command prompt
Navigate (cd) to custom directory
Execute C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe C:\cygwin64\bin\env.exe CHERE_INVOKING=1 C:\cygwin64\bin\bash.exe -l
This command will open cygwin with current directory taken from command prompt.
FreeCommander
This command can also be used to open cygwin from custom file manager, like FreeCommander.
To open cygwin with current directory taken from FreeCommander, do the following:
Tools -> Favorite Tools -> Favorite tools edit... (Ctrl + Shift + Y)
Add a new toolbar (+ Icon), Shortcut: Insert
Name: cygwin
Program or folder: C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe
Start folder: %ActivDir%
Parameter: C:\cygwin64\bin\env.exe CHERE_INVOKING=1 C:\cygwin64\bin\bash.exe -l
You can add custom shortcut to open cygwin from FreeCommander:
Tools -> Define keyboard shortcuts
Scroll down to "Favorite tool 01" (or "Favorite tool N")
Assign new shortcut key: I use Ctrl + Shift + T
Great reference: MinTTY Wiki, article Tips: Starting in a particular directory
I use and Icon to launch my cygwin without the chere package.
Create a shortcut on my desktop for the cygwin terminal.
R-click the icon and select properties.
On the shortcut tab, use this for the TARGET:
C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -c 'cd'
For START IN, Put the path of the dir/folder where you want to
launch cygwin. i.e. C:\some\dir\name\here
To create a Windows shortcut that launches a Cygwin terminal in a directory of your own choosing, try the following:
Right-click on the Windows desktop, select 'New', and then select 'Shortcut'.
For location of the item, enter the following text, changing the mintty path as needed and substituting the name of the desired directory where indicated.
C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe /bin/sh -lc 'cd DESIRED-DIRECTORY; exec bash'
For example, the OP would use the following text:
C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe /bin/sh -lc 'cd /cygdrive/c/Users/Tom/Desktop/; exec bash'
Click 'Next'.
Enter the desired name for the shortcut and click 'Finish'.
Multiple shortcuts can be placed on the desktop to open Cygwin terminals in various often-accessed directories.
Inspired by solution posted on How to open a Cygwin shell at a specific directory from Netbeans? at superuser.com.
I used the following lines of code to start zsh in the current directory in Win7.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash]
#="Open Cygwin Here"
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash\command]
#="\"C:\\Programmieren\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe\" -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico /bin/zsh --login -c 'cd \"%V\";zsh'"
note that i used %V instead of %L or %1 (since both didn't work for me)
Find file Cygwin.bat and make content like this:
#echo off
set newpath=%cd:\=/%
pushd "%~dp0"
chdir bin
bash --login -i -c "cd \"%newpath%\"; exec bash"
Add path to cygwin.bat to environment PATH.
Now in any folder you can type to address bar:
cygwin
Also you can type it when you in cmd.exe
When a fresh install is needed, I create a Windows "user environment variable " named HOME and assigns it the path of wherever "My Documents" reside.
The cygwin installer detects the HOME variable, automatically translates this into a cygpath and selects this it to be my ~ directory.
This has worked fine for every workstation I have used professionally the last 5 years (about 3 or 4, Win7). I have always been the only user on these machines, cannot say what the effect is.
I have made a registry edit script to open Cygwin at any folder you right click. It's on my GitHub.
Here's my GitHub
Sample RegEdit code from Github for 64-bit machines:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\CygwinHere]
#="&Cygwin Bash Here"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\CygwinHere\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\bash.exe --login -c \"cd \\\"%V\\\" ; exec bash -rcfile ~/.bashrc\""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Background\shell\CygwinHere]
#="&Cygwin Bash Here"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Background\shell\CygwinHere\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\bash.exe --login -c \"cd \\\"%V\\\" ; exec bash -rcfile ~/.bashrc\""
Save the following code as a file: cygwin_bash.reg
This will add opening Cygwin in the current directory and opening Cygwin in the specified folder at the same time.
Use ".bashrc" instead of ".bash_profile" configuration. Because of exec bash. .bashrc is executed for interactive non-login shells. see: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/51036/what-is-the-difference-between-bash-profile-and-bashrc
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\z_cygwin_bash]
#="Cygwin Here"
"Icon"="C:\\cygwin64\\Cygwin.ico"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\z_cygwin_bash\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe /bin/sh -lc 'cd \"`cygpath \"%V\"`\"; exec bash'"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\z_cygwin_bash]
#="Cygwin Here"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\z_cygwin_bash\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe /bin/sh -lc 'cd \"`cygpath \"%V\"`\"; exec bash'"
Open Cygwin terminal as Administrator
In powershell (using chocolatey):
choco install cyg-get
In cygwin
Will Install right-click menu
cyg-get install chere
chere -i
Now you can right click and use "Bash Prompt Here" in any folder.
You can add the icon to the shell by adding an Icon field set to the path to your Cygwin.ico file.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash]
#="Cygwin"
"Icon"="\"C:\\cygwin64\\Cygwin.ico\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe"
On my Windows machine it was not taking:
chere -i -t mintty
Because mintty shell was not available,but you might have choice of various other shells like ash bash cmd dash mksh pdksh posh tcsh zsh passwd.
so I used :
chere -i -s bash
In the answer that uses the registry, I found that on Windows 2008 R2 SP1, you need to drop the Background out of the path. Further, since the chere and xhere are not part of cygwin64, here is a solution that works for both, combining the registry and the Send To solutions. Replace 'E:\cygwin64' with your install location:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cygwin_bash]
#="Open Cygwin Here"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cygwin_bash\command]
#="E:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico --exec /bin/bash.exe --login -c \"cd '%1' ; exec bash -rcfile ~/.bashrc\""
This is the only Cygwin64 registry solution that worked for me in Windows 8.1:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\mintty]
#="Mintty from Here"
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\mintty\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe -h always -e /usr/bin/ash -c 'cd \"$(/usr/bin/cygpath \"%L\")\"; exec /usr/bin/bash '"
Make sure you modify your 'C:\cygwin64' path as necessary.
I have created the batch file and put it to the Cygwin's /bin directory. This script was developed so it allows to install/uninstall the registry entries for opening selected folders and drives in Cygwin. For details see the link http://with-love-from-siberia.blogspot.com/2013/12/cygwin-here.html.
update: This solution does the same as early suggestions but all manipulations with Windows Registry are hidden within the script.
Perform the command to install
cyghere.bat /install
Perform the command to uninstall
cyghere.bat /uninstall
I had also problem with git, that used to "steal" my cygwin commands - so i needed to run
C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -
but after installing chere and executing chere -i -t mintty -f as admin (see above), you can simply use :
C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe "."
I added this in Total Commander as custom button (right click on panel > add ...) and it works very well.
Create a bash file say move.sh which has the following code
C:\cygwin64\bin\run.exe -p /bin bash runFile.sh
This starts the Cygwin and executes the runFile.sh present in the bin directory of Cygwin
Suppose you want to navigate to a specific directory say E:\code
then runFile.sh has the following code cd E:
cd code
You can just open cygwin terminal and write: cd and after drag n drop the folder you want end enter!
Finally an answer which is independent of Cygwin itself.
This uses the fact that, if I am on the directory C:\\Cool and I call the command C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe, mintty will automatically open on the current directory, i.e., C:\\Cool.
First, you will need to create the file C:\\Cygwin\\silent_run.vbs with the following contents:
Function EnquoteString(argument)
EnquoteString = Chr(34) & argument & Chr(34)
End Function
arglist = ""
With WScript.Arguments
For Each arg In .Unnamed
' Wscript.Echo "Unnamed: " & arg
If InStr(arg, " ") > 0 Then
' arg contains a space
arglist = arglist & " " & EnquoteString(arg)
Else
arglist = arglist & " " & arg
End If
Next
End With
CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run Trim( arglist ), 0, False
Next, to install this answer, you will use a Windows Registry file. For that, just put the contents of the following file into a file named C:\\Cygwin\\AddMinttyToContextMenu.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Terminal Here]
"Icon"="\"C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe\""
"Position"="Middle"
#="Terminal Here"
"CommandFlags"=dword:00000020
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Terminal Here\Command]
#="\"C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe\" -w max"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Terminal Here]
"Icon"="\"C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe\""
"Position"="Middle"
#="Terminal Here"
"CommandFlags"=dword:00000020
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Terminal Here\Command]
#="cmd.exe /c cd /d \"%V\" && wscript \"C:\\Cygwin\\silent_run.vbs\" \"C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe\" -w max"
Now, Fix all hard coded paths, i.e, C:\\Cygwin to the actual location where your Cygwin installation is on.
Then, just open the file C:\\Cygwin\\AddMinttyToContextMenu.reg to install your new registry entries and you are done.
The file C:\\Cygwin\\AddMinttyToContextMenu.reg works by opening first a cmd.exe, changing to the directory where you are in, then, calling C:\\Cygwin\\silent_run.vbs to open the C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe terminal with the command line options -w max, i.e., to open it maximized.
The script C:\\Cygwin\\silent_run.vbs is required to open the C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe terminal without keeping the first cmd.exe we opened, open.
The first entry of C:\\Cygwin\\AddMinttyToContextMenu.reg does not use C:\\Cygwin\\silent_run.vbs because by default the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell keys are already open in the current directory, then, we can just call C:\\Cygwin\\bin\\mintty.exe directly to get it working out of the box.

It should open cygwin in "your folder of interest".

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cygwin_bash\command]
#="C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico C:\\cygwin64\\bin\\bash.exe --login -c \"cd \\\"%V\\\" ; exec bash -rcfile ~/.bashrc\""
Probably the simplest one:
1) Create file foo.reg
2) Insert content:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\open_mintty]
#="open mintty"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\open_mintty\command]
#="cmd /C mintty"
3) Execute foo.reg
Now just right-click in any folder, click open mintty and it will spawn mintty in that folder.
Best to do like below:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\BashHere
Enter Data: Bash Here
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\BashHere\command
Enter Data:
cmd.exe /c C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c "cd '%1'; exec /bin/bash"
