I tried this command but the window didn't appear. However I could see the process running in TaskManager. >c:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/xemacs Then tried this version of the command and it worked. >c:\cygwin\bin\run.exe /usr/bin/bash.exe -l -c /usr/bin/xemacs I'm just wondering what the difference between the two. Thanks. >systeminfo OS Name: Microsoft Windows XP Professional OS Version: 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600 >cygcheck -c | egrep -i "run|xemacs" base-cygwin 3.0-1 OK cygrunsrv 1.34-1 OK cygutils 1.4.6-1 OK cygwin 1.7.9-1 OK cygwin-doc 1.7-1 OK run 1.1.13-1 OK xemacs 21.5.28-3 OK xemacs-emacs-common 21.5.28-3 OK xemacs-mule-sumo 2007-04-27-1 OK -- bootleg86 -- 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
