Fatal Error on start up
Dear Cygwin, I am trying to install FontForge on my Windows Vista laptop and I need Cygwin shell to run it. To set environmental variables they suggest I run a BAT file. It looks like it succeeds with the variables but it cannot execute XWin at the end. Could you please help me figure out what is wrong with my Cygwin installation.

Regards, Nadia - rem @echo off SET DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 REM REM The path in the CYGWIN_ROOT environment variable assignment assume REM that Cygwin is installed in a directory called 'cygwin' in the root REM directory of the current drive. You will only need to modify REM CYGWIN_ROOT if you have installed Cygwin in another directory. For REM example, if you installed Cygwin in \foo\bar\baz\cygwin, you will need REM to change \cygwin to \foo\bar\baz\cygwin. REM REM This batch file will almost always be run from the same drive (and REM directory) as the drive that contains Cygwin/X, therefore you will REM not need to add a drive letter to CYGWIN_ROOT. For example, you do REM not need to change \cygwin to c:\cygwin if you are running this REM batch file from the C drive.

REM Example: REM XWin -fullscreen -screen 0 -screen 1 -depth 8 -screen 2 REM All screens will be fullscreen, but screen 2 will be depth 8, while REM screens 0 and 1 will be the default depth (whatever depth Windows REM is currently running at).
