thanks, the putty stuff works great. curiously, it still brings up a cygwin
terminal before it brings up the putty terminal. i can delete the terminal
without a problem, but i'd like to keep it from showing up in the first
place, if possible.
here's my cygwin.bat file:
-----------------------------------
@echo off
set CYGWIN=tty
f:/cygwin/puttycyg-20070320/putty.exe -cygterm -load CygwinPuttyTerminal
F:
chdir F:\cygwin\bin
REM bash --login -i
--------------------------------------
i can get emacs to run in a separate window, but not inside the putty
terminal (which would be really nice sometimes). my emacs command is just
the emacs.exe, but i also tried runemacs.exe as the executable, but the
results were the same. is there a different executable i should be using?
thanks for the great help! -- lou
