The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:
*** XtoW-20160323-1
xtow is a window manager using the libxcwm library, which is:
* native: it integrates with native window management by putting each
top-level X window in it's own Windows window (similar to XWin -multiwindow)
* compositing: X windows with per-pixel alpha are composited into the
native DWM desktop on Windows Vista and later (e.g. a native window can
be seen through a semi-transparent X window placed over it)
XtoW is still experimental, but should now be usable enough for doing
some actual work. Testing and problem reports are appreciated.
Changes since 20130802-3:
* Fix transparent windows on Windows 10, copying the approach from [1].
Unfortunately, making this work on Windows 8.1 without 3rd party
software seems near impossible.
Changes since 20130802-2:
* Rewrite startxtow to use python rather than perl to find the virtual
desktop size, since perl-Win32-GUI is no longer packaged
* Add xwin-xdg-menu, so there is some means to launch things and exit
* Fix start menu item to use "(32-bit)" on WoW64, and have the correct icon
* Include postinstall and preremove scripts to add and remove start menu
item in the package

On W7 - Cygwin X86_64
- first run of urxvt ignore font size settings from
.Xdefaults / .Xresources.
The second run uses it.
- xwin-xdg-menu and urxvt doesn't work very well
xwin-xdg-menu takes 23% of CPU time running 1 urxvt process
~46 for 2 urxvt and ~53 % with 3.
No negative effect running multiples xterm's
- UK Keyboard layout not recognized. Keys seem a US like
- Changing Windows Keyboard Layout to DE has no effect
- startxtow output has different info than log file
attached both.
Logging the full output I noticed
--------------------------------------------
DwmEnableBlurBehindWindow failed: 80263001, 0
-----------------------------------------------
This is continuously repeated every time a key is pressed
in the fist urxvt but not in the second lunched as "urxvt &"
Closing urxvt processes produces:

I've removed this package, as this experiment has long since run its course.
The useful part of this is now built into the XWin server, so you can
get the same effect by using the -multiwindow and -compositealpha options.
