That does not work for some reason, here is what happens when I open up a
tcsh shell (without my .tcshrc):
[sgupta@sgupta /cygdrive/c]$ echo $DISPLAY
:0
[sgupta@sgupta /cygdrive/c]$ emacs
emacs: Cannot connect to X server :0.
Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.

OK, you're confused. You mingled the idea of using the X version with
the idea of running a console version of emacs in a different Windows
window. Try:
cygstart emacs

though. ;-)
See man cygstart if you have questions
Yes, something must have happened to my cygwin emacs, because, earlier
today, I think it was interacting with my exceed program somehow. It was
letting me run emacs in cygwin the same way I did it in exceed. So, if I
typed, emacs any local file from my cygwin tcsh shell, it would open
