Hi,
i have installed the Cygwin package on my computer with Windows Xp.
I try to start with startxwin.bat but it doesn't work and the error on the
screen
is :
A fatal error has occurred and Cygwin/X will now exit.
Please open /tmp/XWin.log for more
i've just installed cygwin and am noticing some inconsistencies between
executing commands from the command line versus executing them through a
batch file. for example when I try to do
start excel a.xls
I get bash: start: command not found
but if I put this in a batch file, a.bat say, and the
start is a builtin of cmd.
try cygstart a.xls instead.
