I found out that the problem was that I installed the Nortel remote sslvpn
application manager that makes some changes to the system. Once I undid
those changes all X programs started to work fine again. It is interesting
what kind of changes to the system can interfere with cygwin programs in

Are you sure you are not running twm or any other window manager? you have
to REM twm in the batch file.

Be sure that your $HOME variable is not set to the default windows location,

Hi,
I now realized that I can avoid the problem I reported before if I invoke
rxvt (or xterm) from startxwin.bat without the run command. Usually i had a
line
run rxvt ...
in order to avoid an open command window. If I delete the run then I have
to minimize the command window by hand but all
Following Kensuke's advice I deleted twm from startxwin.bat and now
everything is fine even if I add the command run before rxvt (or xterm).
Thanks Kensuke.

Yes, same file size. (although my time is 14:34 not 19:34). Maybe your
problem is that you are running win 98se whereas all users that reported
success use xp/win2k.

Yes, I see exactly the same behavior. The fact that after opening another

Stephen,
Kensuke Matsuzaki is working on the Windows-based window
BTW, you have to add to the top of startxwin.bat the line
set HOME=XXX where XXX is your home directory,
otherwise wmaker is trying to use the variable HOME from windows environment
c:\Documents and settings\... which does not work.

Harold,
On 12/24 Kensuke advertised for a patch for the multiwindow mode problem.
Why is the code not distributed with setup? If it works now when is it going
to be available to a larger audience?
