"start" - command in windows command line - is there an analogue to "open -R" on Mac OS
Hi,
When working with the terminal on a MAC OS X system, the "open" command, offers the option "-R" to only show a file or directory in finder but not open the file.
As far as I tried the "start" analogue at the Windows command line, there isn't such an option. How can I accomplish this?
Best Regards
Klaus

explorer /e,YourPath can do that. It opens Explorer with YourPath displayed as path.

Thanks for your hint using the explorer command. The /select option of the explorer command was actually what I was looking for.
