hello, i'm a new cygwin user and i'm wondering if there's any way to cycle through windows, like using alt-tab, because alt-tab is captured by the OS. i realize this issue has been touched on before (http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2003-07/msg00044.html) but i'm throwing it out there be

Dear Friends, It seems to me that -[no]unixkill is not working with XWin 4.3.0.1. -[no]winkill does work. (I wish XFree86 would not bind C-M-BS as a default behavior. The choice is Lisp unfriendly since the default emacs binding is backward-kill-sexp, a very useful operation in Lisp modes.) --

AltGr vs. XFree86 4.3

Hi, I've read through mailinglist-archives on possible solutions on how to make AltGr to function as it did prior to XFree86 ver 4.3, but without out success (e.g. I haven't got a clue...). The thing is that when I start xterm from Cygwin, things work as expected. But when I start xclients (DE

Fergus, You probably need to make a soft link to the lesstif includes directory in the location that xpdf is looking for them in. You shouldn't need to do anything special because you are using lesstif instead of Motif. Harold [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You need to install "lesstif" and the XF

Xterm: need HELP to configure it properly

2003-08-25 Thread Alexey Lyubimov
After the first-time install of X, I have found that I need to press key TWICE when I want to run any command in the Xterm console. It was a surprise for me. So my question is: What should I do to force Xterm act like usual bash shell: I mean how to type a command and press _once_ to run it?

There's always Acrobat Reader for viewing .pdf files, but I just tried looking at xpdf from ftp://ftp.foolabs.com/pub/xpdf/xpdf-2.02pl1.tar.gz. As far as it goes, it installs in Cygwin very nicely but at the end of the configure stage it says configure: WARNING: Couldn't find X / Motif you
