Hi,
Nedit's "version" option shows the following information:
NEdit 5.6
Jul 5, 2010

 Built on: Win32, x86-64, GNU C
 Built at: Jun 30 2015, 16:55:01
   With Motif: (Untested) 2.3.4 [@(#)Motif Version 2.3.4]
Running Motif: 2.3 [unknown]
   Server: The Cygwin/X Project 12001000
   Visual: 24-bit TrueColor (ID 0x21, Default)

I did not build NEdit from source. I simply installed it through 
Cygwin.


Can you offer any suggestions to deal with this problem?

Hmm, it's probably a keyboard error then, are you using a funky 
keyboard? What version of xkeyboard-config do you have? You'll want to 
make sure it's the most recent version, from February 2018:

Hi,

I have installed a X-Window text editor called NEdit 5.6 on Windows 10
using Cygwin. I have installed all the required X packages such as
xorg-server, xinit, etc required to run X-Window applications

I have noticed that whenever I open ANY dialog, such as "Goto line
number", "save as" or "open", the keyboard input does NOT show in the
dialog's textbox.

For instance, if I open the "goto line number" dialog, and type
something, the entered number does not show up in the dialog's textbox
. Similarly, when I open the "save as" dialog, I CANNOT type in the
"Directory" field.

These problems are NOT observed when I press and hold the middle mouse
click on the textbox. As long as I hold the middle mouse click, the
textbox shows the characters typed in. When I release the mouse click,
I can no longer enter anything in the textbox.

Is this issue related to xinit? I tried searching online for a
solution but didn't find anything.

Thanks,

Akshay



That's probably a Motif problem not an Nedit problem, what version of 
Motif is your Cygwin using?
