 Started poking around.  Decided to delete and reinstall everything. 
 Worked once, then would just get hung again when I startx.  Went to

Did you use the same user on first and second attempt?

 I get these two errors from the log:
 
 could not init font path element usr/x11r6/lib/x11/fonts/100dpi
 and
 could not init font path element usr/x11r6/lib/x11/fonts/CID

These are not really errors, just messages about not existing fonts. I
assume almost everyone has these.

Send the output of cygcheck -s and the complete Xwin.log please.

You have to reinstall libncurses7 to get emacs back.  See

Actually, I did that 2 days ago to fix another problem with fork, and
this issue seems to have disappeared again. Was just going to post that
when I saw this message :)

So, thanks! That seems to have been the answer.

Just curious, do you get the X icon in the task bar?

I've been having this problem lately since I re-installed a couple of
weeks ago. I thought I had a fix, but it turned out to be a red herring
as my problem came back today...
