I've just tried to install and run cygwin emacs 21.2.13 under Windows Vista. I installed the x11 binaries and emacs lisp src along with the distribution.
I start the xwin server and run emacs and it just sits in the background spinning the CPU. I've tried emacs -q, emacs-nox -q to no avail, same result. Is anyone else successfully running cygwin emacs on Vista? I'm currently running NTEmacs but hitting certain trouble spots when combining with cygwin (I've never got symlinks to work and certain modes - fail when you try using them with the cygwin based interpreters - e.g. pythonwith python.el/python-mode.el and ropemacs for example). So I thought I'd try the native cygwin implementation and see if the experience was any cleaner. -- Darren -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
