Trapping clicks on Cygwin/X Server icon
Hello, is there a way to trap clicks on the Cygwin/X Server icon in the System Tray or on the Exit Button in the dialog that appears? I would like cygwin to run a script before shutting down.

I don't know of a way to trap the exit, but...
I would like cygwin to run a script before shutting down.
You could try adding a menu item (to the menu that appears when you
right click on the X icon) to provide your own exit method. This is
done using the $HOME/.XWinrc file.
If you don't already have a file ~/.Xwinrc, you can get a basic one
from http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/devel/server/example.XWinrc
Place it in your $HOME directory, and rename it to .XWinrc
You could then change the root menu to something like this:
menu root {
// Comments fit here, too...
Reload .XWinrcRELOAD
Kill XWin exec my_script ; kill $PPID
Applications menuapps
SEParATOR
}
The Exit menu item will not be affected, but the new item Kill XWin
will run my_script (assuming it is in your PATH), then kill XWin.
I haven't tested how XWin responds to kill, so you may want to
experiment with changing the signal, e.g. to kill -HUP $PPID in
order to get a clean exit.
If you want to know more about the .Xwinrc file, type man XWinrc
(case is significant).
HTH,
Phil

RE: Trapping clicks on Cygwin/X Server icon
Hi,
thanks for the info.
It seems that the PPID refers to the xterm parent and not to the XWin process,
which, apparently, cannot be killed, probably because it is a Windows process.
Never mind. I will create a menu to remove my file, in the XWin menu, and then
select Exit.

X Issues
I've been running cygwin-X with much satisfaction using fvwm2 windows manager. Initially I started X windows from a regular bash terminal by typing xinit. it would read the config files from the .fvwm directory in my home dir. I did some experiemtnation with icevm and was able to install it and have with a desktop background image. Both windows managers were run with a single parent window where I would launch other child windows (xterm, etc.). I later change the way I launch X windows to this: C:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.sh startxwin.sh: #! /bin/sh export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 export PATH=/usr/X11R6/bin:$PATH export XAPPLRESDIR=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults export XCMSDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Xcms.txt export XKEYSYMDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB export XNLSPATH=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale # Cleanup from last run. rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix XWin -clipboard -silent-dup-error if [ $1 = f ]; then fvwm2 else icewm fi # Return from sh. exit I did an upgrade using the cygwin setup.exe and afterwards I only get the parent window, but no pop-up menu when I mouse click inside the window. Also it doesn't pick up any of the windows fixin's (task bar, pop up menu, etc) and it has the ugly grey background. This is the case for icewm. When using fvwm2, I do get the status bar and popup menues, but nothing happens when I select an app from the popup menu. I've spent a lot of time trying to understand what's going on and if someone could point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful. Thanks.

Re: helP: malfunction of the x window system
Thank you for the suggestion. I did not install new firewalls. The firewall was running also before when the x-server was working correctly. I suspect that the issue was generated trying to run Xming. I had some minor problem with Xfree (before the major issue I reported now) and I tried Xming to see if it was working better. Clearly I did not solve the problem since now nor Xming neither Xfree are working... for comparison I tried an evaluation version of a commercial x-server and it works. But it is not working as good as the cygwin-Xfree was working in the past. thanks again, any suggestion is very appreciated -- Initial Header --- From : [EMAIL PROTECTED] To : cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com Cc : Date : Tue, 04 Dec 2007 23:48:48 +0100 Subject : Re: helP: malfunction of the x window system [EMAIL PROTECTED] schrieb: XWin was started with teh following command line: X :0 -multiwindow -clipboard _XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListener: failed to create listener for local Fatal server error: Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running I checked there were not other Xserver running...
