Again, I say: I'm using rxvt-2.6.2. Compiled with cygwin. Running with
XWin32 as my XServer. CYGWIN='tty ntsec binmode'. I can double-click
rxvt.exe (/usr/local/bin/rxvt.exe == D:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\rxvt.exe)
and it pops up with no extra DOS window. I can create a shortcut to
rxvt.exe, and when I start rxvt.exe using that shortcut I do not get an
extra DOS window. I never ever ever get an extra DOS window. In fact, it
doesn't matter whether CYGWIN=tty or CYGWIN=notty.
