Initial xemacs iconization (was Re: Taskbar appearance changes between xorg-server 11 series and 12.0 series)
In the end, I was able to address my xemacs initial window appearance
under cygwin xfree in this way:
1) First, xemacs does not handle -iconic or the iconized resource
properly. I found it best not to set them.
2) The command line -name argument will override all the X resources,
so if not really what I wanted (I'd have to create a whole new
set of settings -- might be useful for some users or under other
circumstances).
3) The window name / title argument was what I ended up using, thus:
xemacs -T xemacs
Since the default class name for xemacs windows is emacs, I can match
all windows in .XWinrc using emacs, and thus minimize them all using:
STYLES { emacs MINIMIZE }
If I want to minimize just the one window created in (3) above, I can
write:
STYLES { xemacs MINIMIZE }
It's all logical in its own idiosyncratic way, I suppose ... Eliot

Re: Taskbar appearance changes between xorg-server 11 series and 12.0 series (more)
Dear Jon (et al.): Here's an interesting new bit of evidence. When playing around with xlaunch configurations and such, I ran startxwin several times this morning. ONCE, X came up without the iconized StartXWin window (i.e., things displayed as they used to before I upgraded xorg-server). This makes me suspect that there may be some kind of timing-related behavior. Perhaps the relevant code did not change between releases, but other changes affected relative timing of various actions, exposing a latent bug or race condition. I am happy to switch the xlaunch, though, if the separate issue with XWin when started under xlaunch can be resolved. Regards, and thanks again for your efforts in maintaining this complex beast!

Build problem with most current cygwin?
Several folk here use Cygwin with windows 7 enterprise as a tool to access linux servers. They have Cygwin with X installed and use a combination of terminal windows and X exports from the RH servers to manage items. The most recent version of Cygwin, when upgraded, breaks in these uses.

Interesting gotcha: http + vim-common + maybe Symantec Endpoint Protection
I had something interesting happen to me and wanted to mention it, though perhaps it's in the FAQ and I've just not noticed it. Short form: if downloading a file freezes or fails, switching your setup server from http: to ftp: (or perhaps vice versa) may help. The symptom was that, for a few months, I was unable to download the latest version of vim-common -- it would hang, either partway thru or at the start. The mirror was http://mirrors.xmission.com/..., so Downloading... vim-common-7.3.447-1.tar.bz2 from http://mirrors.xmission.com/... 0 % (0k/1k) 0.0 kB/s Download Incomplete. Try again? Before, I thought that maybe just xmission was hosed. I tried another host: same result. I got tired of it and just uninstalled vim and vim-common just so I didn't have to re-deselect them on each update. Today, I wondered whether it was a file permission problem, so I renamed http%3a%2f%2fmirrors.xmission.com%2fcygwin%2f/release -- same problem. I then suddenly thought to try the ftp: version of the same mirror, as I had been using the http: version. Success! My system has, as its antivirus, Symantec Endpoint Protection. I checked the logs and found nothing. However, I might not be looking in the right place, or for all I know, maybe there is scanning further up like on the $ORKPLACE Internet gateway and thus I can't possibly see it or control it. The FAQ suggests turning off anti-virus (2.8 My computer hangs when I run Cygwin Setup!), but that is NOT permitted (or even possible) for a user at $ORKPLACE. -- Tim McDaniel, t...@panix.com -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple

RE: Where are end user instructions to compile an updated package?
Keith Christian sent the following at Wednesday, April 11, 2012 9:41 AM I'm interested in compiling the latest Sqlite source into a Cygwin package to updated the current version, for use on one machine. Could someone point me to the instructions that are complete enough for an end user to begin with source code, and produce an installable Cygwin package? Not to contradict the other respondents (and it is not exactly what you asked), but you do not need to create a cygwin package for one machine. You can just configure, compile, etc. However, you might want to check at each step, singe the default prefix is probably /usr/local, which may not be in your path. (If that is wrong, I'm sure someone will correct it soon.)
