In $HOME I have this .Xdefaults: ~/.Xdefaults -------------------------------------------------- ! ---------[ urxvt ] --------- URxvt*background: Black URxvt*foreground: LightGray URxvt*scrollBar: true URxvt*scrollBar_right: true URxvt*saveLines: 2500 URxvt*termName: xterm URxvt*font: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=12:medium:roman:antialias=true URxvt*boldFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=12:bold:roman:antialias=true URxvt*italicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=12:medium:italic:autohint=true:antialias=true URxvt*boldItalicFont: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=12:bold:italic:autohint=true:antialias=true !URxvt*fading: 60 !URxvt*tintColor: white !URxvt*shading: 20 !URxvt*inheritPixmap: true !URxvt*colorBD: green !URxvt*colorIT: grey -------------------------------------------------- (Note that the lines: 'Mono:size...' are a continuation of previous, 'xft:Bitstream...') Then I have a shortcut called 'rxvt-X' on Desktop which runs: C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe -p /usr/X11R6/bin bash --login -c /usr/local/bin/start_urxvt.sh The file /usr/local/bin/start_urxvt.sh is ---------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash export DISPLAY=:0 # start_XWin() # { # XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error +bs & # } # /usr/bin/checkx || start_XWin /usr/bin/checkx || /usr/local/bin/start_XWin.sh exec /usr/bin/urxvt -e /usr/bin/bash -l ---------------------------------------------------------------- and /usr/local/bin/start_XWin.sh is the 'startxwin.sh' of Cygwin in which I have commented out the line that starts 'xterm'. As you can see this method uses in any case the X system: 'checkx' verifies if X is running. If not, X is started (start_XWin.sh), then 'urxvt' is executed.
