It's hard to believe a lack of carriage return in .Xresources was the problem. I also removed a useless line: "emacs.font fixed" before the one I really want "emacs.font 6x10". OR Could BLODA be the cause? I know my employer updates software automagically in evenings when I'm not here. Anyway, thanks for looking into this Ken. I really appreciate you and the rest of The Cygwin-developer team's work. No, I *really* appreciate it. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
