Sorry, I found a workaround to my question. There is an option --hide to cygstart that avoids that shell window. So I created a shortcut that invokes xemacs via cygstart --hide, as in C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c 'cygstart --hide /c/cygwin/bin/xemacs' Cheers, Th. > -----Original Message----- > From: Weigert, Thomas > Sent: Sunday, September 09, 2007 10:44 PM > To: 'cygwin AT cygwin DOT com' > Cc: Weigert, Thomas > Subject: problem with xemacs 21.4.20 > > Up to now I had been using xemacs-21.4.13.
