DISPLAY is not set. If you need further help with Cygwin/X, please ask on
the cygwin-xfree list. Your other message was redirected there already.
This reply concerns insight.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Wrong. You didn't need to download "insight" separately, it should have
been already installed in /usr/bin (since you apparently installed
everything). The version that you've downloaded is likely not compiled
for Cygwin, and so won't understand Cygwin POSIX paths. Just run
"/usr/bin/insight test.exe".
