This kind of question should really be directed to the Cygwin/X list,
assuming information from <http://x.cygwin.com/devel/documentation/>
doesn't help.

If you installed Cygwin as "All Users", then you can easily use the same
icon to start 'bash' as any user.  If you didn't install as "All Users",
you can rerun 'setup' and make this change.

See <http://cygwin.com/packages/>.  But I think you'll really find that
'less' is a better choice.
