I think Angelo was trying to avoid having an unnecessary bash process

Indeed! (I think...)
I have various links on desktop (to start Emacs, mrxvt, xfig, etc.) like
this:
C:\cygwin-2\bin\run.exe bash -l -c 'rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix; XWin
-multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error &'
and 'experimentally' adding '&' reduces the number of processes, as
shown by task manager...
so why
not do it like this instead:
%RUN% bash -l -c "exec XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error"
interesting... I will give it a try. But, in any case, it would be
useful to know what Cygwin guys think.
Thanks,
Angelo.
