Subject:	Spawning new window
References:	<20010712154606 DOT C554 AT dothill DOT com>

Something I haven't been able to find in the documentation is how to
spawn a new shell/window from within a cygwin window.  For example, I'd
like to open a telnet session to another machine (ideally, setting
console colours while I'm at it; we do colour coding by system for our
AIX systems) in a new window.

I've tried the Cygwin/Xfree setup, but that's far too slow over a dialup
connection, while a straight ocnsole window would actually be acceptable
(although it requires re-creating scripts usually run from the host
machine).
