We have a winner. This works. Ah, then you don't need to add c:\cygwin\bin to the global path. Great -- I really didn't want to get into having setup.exe muck with autoexec. So, you want something like: c:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -display :0 -fn "Lucida Console-12" -fg #202020 -bg #000000 -sl 2000 -e /bin/bash --login -i Anybody want to provide a patch for setup.exe so that it adds to cygwin.bat a REM commented line similar to the above? --Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
