Dear Sir/Madam, I have installed cygwin in my IBM intellistation with windows xp professional Operating system (64 bit edition). I am experiencing some difficulties in using the graphical windows which can be invoked through cygwin terminal. Could you please clarify since i am new to linux environment? when i typed emacs in the terminal, i got the emacs window, but none of the menu options worked. i was not able to close it even with C-x C-c. I closed the cygwin terminal instead of getting out of emacs. when I type 'edit' in bash or csh, it shows 'command not found'. I had given the command 'init 0' in the terminal and got the following message from the syatem: A fatal error has occurred and Cygwin/X will now exit. Please open /tmp/XWin.log for more information. vendor: the cygwin/X project release 6.8.99.901-4 contact: cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com XWin was started with the following command line: /usr/X11R6/bin/XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent -dup -errorKindly suggest me what to do to make my cygwin work well with emacs and X window.
