bug? - startxwin.bat missing from recent Cygwin install

2004-09-21 Thread John Hebert
Howdy,

I installed the latest release of Cygwin, and it
doesn't include startxwin.bat. Is this normal? Was it
removed for a specific reason?

I remember playing around with CygwinX about a year
ago and it was there.

John

Doh! problem solved was Re: bug? - startxwin.bat missing from recent Cygwin install

I apologize for not reading the install section in the
excellent Cygwin/X User's Guide more closely.

I missed two packages during the setup.

Is it possible to rename these two packages:

X-start-menu-icons
X-startup-scripts 

so that they match the other packages (xorg-x11...) so
they would appear in the same section during setup?
I'll bet I'm not the only noob making the same
mistake.

Thanks for taking the time to help me out.

John

You weren't!
Thanks for the info. It's a good suggestion.
