I am running cygwin on a recent windows 7, 64 bit box. cygwin is
completely up to date.
The problem is that xrdb when run from a cygwin bash shell will not
change the resources database. I have tried all sorts of variants of the
command to no avail. xrdb -query always shows nothing and my xterms
behave as if no resources have been loaded.
However, should I run xrdb -merge on my linux box with the display set
to my cygwin box, the resources are successfully loaded. Not only that,
xrdb -query run on the windows 7 box in cygwin shows that the resources
have been properly loaded.
Does anyone have a clue as to what might be going on?
Thanks
Horace
