Open ConEmu Here ContextMenu using Cygwin

[Ömer Genç]

Here there, 

i am trying to create a new right-click context menu entry in windows 7. I am using ConEmu in combination with cygwin. What i want to have is exactly, what is described here for ConEmu and Git Bash. 

http://superuser.com/questions/454380/git-bash-here-in-conemu

I nearly achieved what i want and i have a working context menu entry.

The problem is ConEmu always starts in the $HOME directory, i want it to start in the directory on which i made the right-click.

Here are the screenshot of my configuration.

Hi, there is a bug in the cygwin version of bash.
It ignore "starting directory".
You need to contact cygwin developers but not me...

Regards

Hey,

i was able to fix this on my own!

The command must be »""C:\cygwin64\bin\sh" --login -i"« instead of »""C:\cygwin64\bin\bash" --login -i"«.

Now it works as expected.

Is it possible to assign a keyboard shortcut to trigger the context menu entry?

Thanks

Strange, you are lucky )

Use "&"to create shortcut.

[Ömer Genç]

Hey,

i am sorry but i dont understand, how to use "&".

Could you post an example?

Lets say i want to assign the combo "ALT+SHIFT+x" to trigger the context menu entry?

Thanks in advance

ConEmu CAN'T manage hotkeys in the explorer!
You can only highlight one letter in the menu item name, e.g. "ConEmu &here".
Alternatively, you can try to deal with AutoHotKey

Hey,

i am still struggling with this. I realy would like to have a keyboard shortcut that opens a ConEmu instance, runs a Cygwin bash in the currently selected directory.

As mentioned, i have a Windows 7 context menu entry "ConEme here", which does exactly that. It works fine. Now i would like to trigger this with the keyboard.

In response to your suggestion to deal with AutoHotKey, i created a AutoHotKey script and inserted the following:

#x::RUN "C:\Program Files\ConEmu\ConEmu64.exe" /cmd {Cygwin}

This is exactly the command i found in the Windows registry of the "ConEmu here" context menu entry.

What this does is, on pressing the keyboard combination "WIN+x" it opens a ConEmu and loads the cygwin bash shell.

However, unfortuneately it does not enter the correct directory. The bash shell always starts in the directory where the AutoHotKey script containing the Keyboard command resides.

I believe, i am missing the part of the command where the currently selected directory is passed in as an argument to the bash shell.

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Two ways I think

1. Retrieve somehow path from explorer (this depends on Windows version and explorer settings. Sometimes it is displayed in the window title)
And run
...\ConEmu64.exe" /dir "your dir here" /cmd {Cygwin}

2. Simulate calling menu item. Post to explorer RightClick (or Apps key press) and hotkey of "ConEmu here".

Good luck
