I cannot use xclock - we have one clock in Windows(TM) al= ready, but I'll choose something. Is there any way to do whatever the current version of /etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc=20 does (xwin-xdg-menu, gnome-keyring-daemon, and lots of other goodies which = I sometimes need) and, in addition (as opposed to "instead"), run uxterm? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
