On linux,
$ xterm -e 'foo; bar; baz'
starts xterm, then runs shell, executing foo, then bar, then baz.
on cygwin, I get an error in the xterm
"No absolute path for shell: foo; bar; baz"
That's a bug in xterm patch #202 which is fixed in patch #203.
The current patch level is #208.

amend change to command-line processing in patch #201 to avoid conflict
with -e option (report by Servatius Brandt).
