Re: getting emacs in cygwin

Larry, I tried using "run.exe" as you suggested in "cygwin.bat" but it does not work. The issue is not emacs, but the initial login terminal. Besides I don't see that it does emacs any good at all (1) it causes emacs to fail in a std tty window. and (2) from an x-window it doesn't do anything t

Re: getting emacs in cygwin

Lou, yes, you can run emacs in cygwin in either of two modes, which emacs figures out by itself. Either in terminal mode if invoked from a terminal emulator like, say putty or in full graphical mode if executed from one of cywin's X-windows. And yes, you can run a shell inside it too, if you s
