Subject: Trouble running emacs on new box
To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

I had Cygwin running on an old box for a while.  I have a desktop
shortcut to run Emacs, using the following command line:
---------------------
C:\cygwin64\bin\run2.exe --display 127.0.0.1:0.0 /usr/local/bin/emacs.xml
----------------

This was working fine.  I set this up quite a while ago, so I don't
quite remember the circumstances of the pieces of this.

I'm now setting up cygwin on a new box, with very similar
configuration. Unfortunately, setting up Cygwin is something I don't
do very often, and it's usually a year or more since the last time I
did it.  I've already reviewed the FAQ and User Guide for hints.

When I first tried this command line, it failed without any good error
messages.  I later realized that one good reason it's failing is that
"/usr/local/bin/emacs.xml" doesn't exist on the new box.  I looked at
this file on the old box, and it seems relatively simple, but is this
a file I'm supposed to create myself?  I don't remember doing this.
