Why is anything needed? I find I can create multiple Cygwin screens by simply switching to the MSDOS/4DOS window, and launching another. I use a 4dos alias that executes "start c:\cygwin\cygwin.pif". The pif executes "%comspec% /c c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat". This is on W98. Same end result from clicking on things in the start menu or on the desktop. -- Chuck F ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Available for consulting/temporary embedded and systems. <http://cbfalconer.home.att.net> USE worldnet address! -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
