Well, I may invoking by saying "emacs &", but all indications are that it's the X version of emacs that starts up, because if I try to start emacs from the cygwin terminal:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~
$ which emacs
/usr/bin/emacs

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~
$ /usr/bin/emacs
emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.0.
Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.
Also use the `xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit
connections from your machine.

Is there a different way to invoke Xemacs? I do get xemacs as part of my Cygwin install and keep it updated regularly

Aha, so it's emacs and not XEmacs. Search the list, I think there are
known problems with emacs or even better download the new proposed
version from Joe B�hler. Or maybe switch to XEmacs....
