The new -multiwindow mode looks really promising for occasional access to unix GUI programs from a windows box. Is there any way to completely hide the process of connecting in a batch file or bash script that can be attached to a windows desktop icon? That is, it should start xwin (only) if it isn't already running, The then ssh the appropriate command to a remote host with X forwarding. If ssh keys are in place the window should just appear without much indication that it is remote, otherwise it would have to stop for the ssh password prompt. How can such a script tell at the batch or bash level if xwin is already running?
