Folks- I just updated my Cygwin/X, and the latest version has an undesirable new habit.
When I run my batch files, I get my usual X desktop, but I also get a DOS box with the following contents: ---------------------------------------------- Vendor: The Cygwin/X Project Release: 6.7.0.0-3 Contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] XWin was started with the following command line: XWin -clipboard OsVendorInit - Creating bogus screen 0 winValidateArgs - g_iNumScreens: 1 iMaxConsecutiveScreen: 1 winValidateArgs - Returning.

I have not changed my batch files, which worked fine with the previous version (say 3 weeks ago) of Cygwin/X. How can I eliminate this? -Shel -- Sheldon T.
