Configuring Console2 with Cygwin
When using Windows, Console2 does a great job of managing my console windows, but it’s not intuitive how to configure it with Cygwin (my console of choice). It’s not that hard to simply get Cygwin to open in Console2, but it can be tricky to get it open to a startup directory.
Here are the steps to get Console2 to open to a specific startup directory:
Launch Console2
Open settings through Edit > Settings
Click tabs from the tree on the left
Click the ‘Add’ button to add a new tab
Set the title to ‘Cygwin’ (or another appropriate name)
