Access cygwin through a C# application

[Zachary Noyes]

Hi piclist,

I want to access cygwin through a C# application. I can't say much about the
actual problem I am trying to solve, but a program can only be accessed
through cygwin command line because that's how you enter parameters into the
program. I need to do this in an automated fashion with certain triggers to
tell a C# application to call cygwin which calls the required application.
How is this done? Thanks.

ShellExecute or whatever the managed version of it is?
