Be sure that your $HOME variable is not set to the default windows location, but set it to e.g. c:\cygwin\home\yourname. wmaker has a problem with c:\Documents and Settings\ "Quan Ding" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > I just downloaded and installed Cygwin.

using WindowMaker instead of twm
I just downloaded and installed Cygwin. The default window manager : twm doesn't provide many functionality and it's hard to use. I don't even know how to change the windows size. (i'm a newbie). I found that there is wmaker.exe in X11R6/bin. So I replaced that with "twm &" in the startxwin.sh file. But when I tried to run it. WindowMaker couldn't start, crashed all the time. So how do I use windowmaker instead of twm? (or does cygwin come with any other better window manager?) __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.
