Open Windows file explorer on a directory with Cygwin.

opene.sh

#!/bin/bash.exe

# This script opens a given directory up in the Windows file explorer. I did
# this to make it easy when opening directories in the Cygwin system using
# the explorer.
#
# To install:
#
#   $ touch /usr/bin/opene
#   $ vim /usr/bin/opene
#   Copy contents of this script to /usr/bin/opene...
#   $ chmod +x /usr/bin/opene
#
# Now test it out!
#
#   $ opene .
