This release is taken from the cygwin-1.7-specific
development branch (cygutils-1.4.1 will no longer compile
on legacy versions of cygwin; it requires functions noly
added in the newer cygwin kernels).
The new mkshortcut appears to ignore the '-w' option, at least in the
example I tried:
/usr/bin/mkshortcut -D \
-n emacs \
-d 'Emacs (X11)' \
-w /usr/bin \
-i /usr/share/emacs/23.1.50/etc/emacs.ico \
-a /usr/share/emacs/23.1.50/etc/emacs.xml \
/usr/bin/run2.exe
The resulting shortcut had a blank "Start in" box. In this case I
shouldn't have needed the -w anyway, since /usr/bin would be the
default, but the same thing happened when I tried other directories.
I'm running XP SP3 if that's relevant.
