I want to run XWin much like startwin does, but with extra parameters

to run XWin? So...
Startwin.exe = Xwin.exe parm1 parm2 parm3 etc
What are parm1, parm2, parm3, etc...?
Hmm... It's a bit of an omission from the startxwin man page [1], that it
doesn't actually tell you it's adding '-multiwindow'
However, reading that man page does tell you the syntax for adding extra
server arguments (e.g. -- -logfile file) to your startxwin invokation.
Note that invoking the server directly will not do the other things that
startxwin does (i.e. waiting until the server is started and then executing
~/.startxwinrc)
In future, please start a new email thread, rather than replying to an
existing one and changing the subject.
