So I should miss something because I think what I did is correct ;-)
- I start cygwin using the icon from the Windows 7 desktop
(bash shell is used; full cygwin install was carried out)
- in my .bashrc I do have:
export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
This is not required and, in the case of X forwarding using ssh (and
perhaps other cases), this would not be what you want.
- the command "echo $DISPLAY" gives in this black terminal:
127.0.0.1:0.0
- I execute startxwin.sh in this black terminal
- from the new xterm opened (white), I execute "wish tmp.tcl"
I get:
/usr/bin/xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
/usr/bin/xterm: DISPLAY is not set
Where is the problem ?
Sorry, I'm not a tcltk expert. My guess is it has to do with the
fact that Cygwin's tcltk isn't X-based. As a result, it may be
X-challenged.
