Eliminating dead keys under X

stopping the cygwin X Server
There's a nifty startxwin.bat file for starting the x server, but I was wondering how to stop it. So I went searching and found: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ug/using-stopping.html When you are done using Cygwin/X, press Alt-F4 to shutdown the X Server; this is the default key combination to shutdown the X Server. As far as I can tell, this is quite wrong. Alt-F4 will close any open window, but not the server, but if you are rootless, and there are no X apps open, alt-f4 simply closes whichever windows app you have open. the xwin.exe process continues to run. You cannot switch to the xwin process to bring it forward to then close it. There is no way to send an alt-f4 to it. Should there be a stopxwin.bat? -j -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

Why not stop it with Exit on the context menu of the X icon in the status bar? -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd.
