Stuck trying to reinstall Emacs 23.0.92 and setup dying each time

2009-07-01 Thread KARR, DAVID (ATTCINW)
I had set up Cygwin yesterday with the experimental Emacs 23.0.92. I had done other updates after that, forgetting the fact that since I'm using an experimental package, I have to set the Emacs-related pages to "Keep". I'm now in a state where I have the 23.0.92 executable, but with /usr/share/em

Best way to create Windows .ico file for Emacs?

2009-07-02 Thread KARR, DAVID (ATTCINW)
I'm sure this is a FAQ, but I've spent several minutes searching resources for the proper way to do this, but I just can't find it. I have Cygwin Emacs 23.0.92 installed, which includes the "emacs.icon" file, which I believe is an XPM file. I need to create a Windows ICO file. Searching the net,

How to resolve 'Your group is currently "mkpasswd"' message

After installing Cygwin 1.5.25 and bringing up RXVT, I got a message I've seen in the past, saying 'Your group is currently "mkpasswd" ...'. It advises me to run "mkpasswd" and "mkgroup" to fill in records in /etc/group and /etc/passwd. If I run "mkpasswd -l" it completes quickly, but doesn't incl

How to run bash in rxvt with both login shell and in a specific directory?

I could use some help getting through a quoting problem. I'm using Cygwin 1.5.25, Emacs 23.0.92.1, and Eclipse 3.5.1. There's a "PathTools" plugin for Eclipse that lets me specify a command line to open a file in an external editor, or open a shell in the directory the file is in. I have no trou
