I suspect this may be due to the use of %DISPLAY% (which I don't
recall). I see that in your environment this is set to ":1.0"

What happens if you run the following from cmd:

cd c:\cygwin64\usr\x11r6\bin
c:\cygwin64\bin\xterm.exe -display %DISPLAY% -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe c:

Is it any different if you run
c:\cygwin64\bin\xterm.exe -display :1 -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe c:

or
c:\cygwin64\bin\xterm.exe -display :0 -e /bin/xhere /bin/bash.exe c:

Also, I presume the X server is already running?


Dave.
