Hi,

I'm able to start and use Xwin.  However, after the X server is up, I need to 
manually close the
cygwin bash window (the one that started the X server).  I've checked the usual 
places, but have
not come up with a solution.

This is probably more of a shell "scripting" question, but since the solution 
I'm looking for is a
"windows executable (C:\cygwin\startxwin.bat) that I can drop into my StartUp 
folder to
automatically start Xwin" when I log in, here I am.

Here's where I'm at thus far:

1. C:\cygwin\startxwin.bat exists, and has the following contents:
@echo off

c:
chdir c:\cygwin\bin

bash --login -i /usr/local/bin/myxwin

You might want to try this:

bash --login -c /usr/local/bin/myxwin
             ^^

-i is for an interactive shell

Regards, Doug
