Thanks guys I have made progress.

I made a link to tcsh in the cygwin/bin directory and it is obviously reading
that successfully.

When running startupui (i.e. after typing dx at the bash prompt) I kept crashing
out because it could not find the following library files - LibICE.DLL,
LibSM.DLL, LibX11.DLL, LibXext.DLL and LipXP.DLL until I copied them from the
/local/X11R6/bin directory to the /local/bin directory. Now it stops with the
message:

Error: Can't open display: unix:0

What should I do next? I am also a bit unsure as to whether I have done the
right thing with my termcap file. Basically I moved xterm.termcap to the
appropriate directory and renamed it termcap. Should I have cut its contents out
and pasted them into the old termcap?

Thanks
Cameron

It can be that he needs csh.exe in his PATH.  In /usr/bin you will find
tcsh.exe, make symlink to it

ln -s tcsh csh
