Colin,
Make sure that your "DISPLAY" environment is set. To see if it is, do:
$ echo $DISPLAY
This should be something like
machineName:0.0
where machineName is ... the name of your machine. If it isn't, you can
set it by:
setenv DISPLAY machineName:0.0

It's still not working. I put a SET DISPLAY=MYMACHINE:0.0 in my
autoexec.bat and it still doesn't work. Do I have to have X11 installed
in order to make this work? In the bash shell that comes up when I
click on cygwin it now echos back MYMACHINE when I try to echo $DISPLAY
command, so I know that it's set properly. Is there any diagnostics I
can run to find out where insight it trying to send the "hello world"
characters?
Thanks,

This is what Martin & I originally intended for that class. However, as
you can tell from the paucity of code in it, Martin left before he could
get around to fleshing it out, and the rest is history... This sounds
like a really good idea.

So let's do it. I can't promise doing it this week as it is a very busy
one around here, but I will tackle it next week.
