No idea as to what is going wrong. The plan is that cygwin starts X11 on startup (-c startx) in the cygwin dos-box; then X11 opens a xterm when it starts; and that xterm launches grass. The '-n "$DISPLAY"' part should protect against it trying to start grass from the cygwin dos-box outside of X11. What does: echo $DISPLAY say from the cygwin dos-box prompt (not the xterm). ?
