The Cygwin version of emacs is separate and distinct from the GNU version of emacs that (also) runs on Windows.
The Cygwin version should, by default, be installed in your Cygwin path and can be started from a Cygwin shell prompt with the command "emacs". It will run in the Cygwin command window that you have started, i.e., a "no-window" version, unless you have installed the Cygwin distribution of the X Windows software. > -----Original Message----- > From: Richard Heintze [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, July 09, 2004 4:30 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: HOw to install emacs? > > > I've been downloading emacs from the gnu site and > running addpm.exe to install it on Windows 2003. > > I notice there is an emacs in the cygwin distribution > but I cannot figure out how to run it.
