Yes...it requires installing a separate executable program.
This "add bash prompt" requires no 3rd party binary and uses programs already included in the cygwin base package.
The installable program also has a bug in that it invokes each shell window as a separate user login, breaking the normal windowing paradigm of one login (starting an X-server, for example), followed by multiple client windows (that don't get started as login windows).
Why install extra programs when it can all be done by adding 2 registry keys (1 for directories, 1 for drives)?
