Perhaps you could try that and see if it improves things. > [1] http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2012-08/msg00000.html > [2] ftp://cygwin.com/pub/cygwinx/x86_64/run.exe -- Makes sense that it could be run.exe behavior. However, the version of run.exe from [2] (which is 220K in size vs. 68K for the original version ?!?) does not seem to do anything. Running it from a CMD window with urxvtermX.bat as the argument does not produce an error message, a urxvt term, nothing. BTW, I made an effort to give both versions of run.exe (I renamed the new one runX.exe) the same ownership and permissions, but to no avail. Am I missing something essential? jjo P.S.
