I use the following shortcut for starting XEmacs: > > start /min c:\cygwin\bin\rxvt -T "start XEmacs" -e /bin/bash --login -i -c "DISPLAY= /usr/local/bin/xemacs &" > > This causes a minimized rxvt window to be created, but it quickly > goes away once XEmacs starts starting. > What I am doing now is 1) dos batch file @echo off bash --login -e /home/antoine/runemacs.sh pause 2) contents of runemacs.sh #!/bin/sh /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit.exe 3) I am starting xemacs out of my ~/.xinitrc exec xterm -geometry 80x66+0+0 -name login -e "/usr/local/bin/i686-pc-cygwin/xemacs" Tedious, but I have created an icon for the first bat file on my quick start bar, and I can get my xemacs started.
