In the previous version of Cygwin/X, when XWin.exe was started by 
startxwin.bat, I was able to specify the emulate3buttons option to 
simulate a middle mouse button press by pressing the right and left 
buttons simultaneously.  Now that I must use startxwin.exe to start the 
X Server, how do I specify this?

Thanks!
Anthony

The syntax for specifying additional server options is documented in 'man 
startxwin'

You want 'startxwin.exe -- -emulate3buttons'
