RE: Starting with startxwin.bat
... problem with the way that XWin and 'run' interact. In other words, you can't use 'run' with XWin in certain modes... Instead use 'start /B' if you are on an NT-based platform... Using this; start /B XWin run openbox run xsetroot -solid aquamarine4 allows it to start with the 'startxwin.bat' ok, albeit, it does open a separate terminal window. I can easily work with this. Thanks Sterling

You probably just need to grab the xterm package.

This worked correctly until I applied the latest updates which change to the Xorg-X instead of the XFree86. I can still start cygwin in terminal mode and then use /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh and it works correctly (although having to have the extra window is a little annoying), both .sh and .bat are set to the same options. The only options from default I use are; run XWin run openbox run xsetroot -solid aquamarine4 I don't know what setting may need to be different or added to get this to work the way I've always used it before. Thanks Sterling Baker

In other words, you can't use 'run' with XWin in certain modes, one of which is the mode that you are using. Instead use 'start /B' if you are on an NT-based platform, else, you're stuck with a shell script for the time being. Sorry. Harold
