I use cygwin. I type 'startx' to run the x terminal. Then I run 'gvim'
from that.

As far as 'indent', it is not a bash command, it is a program that may
have to be installed with the cygwin package manager. Either way, I
don't have file or path translation problems.

It doesn't, if invoked from bash or from some other cygwin program (including a Cygwin build of console Vim or a Cygwin/X11 build of gvim). If invoked from a Windows-native build of gvim, the user would have to make sure that what gvim thinks of as "C:\Documents and Settings\johndoe\foobar.c" gets translated to /home/johndoe/foobar.c or /cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/johndoe/foobar.c -- or even /cygdrive/c/DOCUME~1/johndoe/foobar.c -- when invoking Cygwin indent.

OTOH, since (IIRC) builds of Vim available on the Cygwin site are usually console builds, to get a Cygwin/X11 build of gvim you would have to compile it yourself.


Best regards,
Tony.
