Hello again, Thanks for your quick reply and suggestions. The nedit suggestion does the trick. I notice that the fonts are a bit messed up, as the text appears very big (much larger than the original setting). The keyboard issue is not sorted out (and it does not work with nedit either). Cannot

The uncommon valor of Yaakov Selkowitz

Yesterday, Yaakov released a new version of X for Cygwin, rectifying a long-standing problem in the Cygwin distribution. He was amazingly diligent in making sure that his upgrade did not break the Cygwin distribution. His new packages are laid out in a more sensical fashion and attempt to
