Dear Jon (et al.) --
Something seems to have changed between the last 1.11 release and
the 1.12.0 (up through the 1.12.0-2 release made yesterday).
The window for StartXWin, which is minimized, did not previously
result in an X icon in the taskbar, but now does, and it is
distinct from the stack of X icons for my several launched
xterms. I feel it is clutter and want to suppress it, but I
don't know how at this point.
Separately, going from 1.12.0-1 to 1.12.0-2 changed my xemacs
icon, to one that is nearly transparent (there's something
there, but very hard to discern). In the past xemacs gave
its own icon (which I could never find or override).
Here are possibly relevant facts about my setup:
1) How I start things: StartWXin is a Windows short cut, set to run as a
"Normal Window", started from directory C:\cygwin\bin, with this command
("Target"):
C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /bin/bash -l -c "/bin/startxwin -- -unixkill -clipboard
-multimonitors -resize -engine 1 -emulate3buttons 100 -wm -auth
/home/Eliot/.Xauthority"
2) My .startxwinrc file contains:
#!/bin/bash
xrdb -merge ${HOME}/.Xdefaults
xmodmap ${HOME}/.Xmodmap
UC="${USER} console"
xterm +tb -geometry 110x43+4+0 -T "${USER}" -n "${USER}" -name "${USER}" -bg
rgbi:.0/.2/.2 -ls &
xterm +tb -geometry 110x43-10+0 -T "${UC}" -n "${UC}" -name "${UC}" -bg
rgbi:.5/.0/.1 -ls &
xterm +tb -maximized -T task -n task -name task -bg rgbi:.05/.05/.05 -ls
-e rlwrap -a -- task shell &
xemacs -T xemacs -n xemacs -name xemacs1 &
3) My .XWinrc contains:
MENU systray {
elnux1 EXEC "xterm -display %display% -ls -title elnux1 -bg rgbi:.1/.10/.1 -e /usr/bin/ssh
[email protected]"
elnux7 EXEC "xterm -display %display% -ls -title elnux7 -bg rgbi:.1/.10/.1 -e /usr/bin/ssh

xpdf EXEC "xpdf"
SEPARATOR

}
ROOTMENU systray
STYLES {
console MINIMIZE
Eliot MINIMIZE
xemacs1 MINIMIZE
}
======
These various commands / files all seem to be seen and used. And by the way,
the xemacs1 MINIMIZE does not seem to work -- it always starts maximized and I
have to minimize it manually. Hints on that?
