This question is a mixed bag of both cygwin xterm knowldge and Windows XP
knowledge.
I have Xwin started using -multiwindow
I can now launch xterm -display 127.0.0.1:0 from the windows xp start->run
However in addition to the newly created xterm, there's also a new windows
cmd console hanging around.
I've tried various things including writing a windows batch file that uses
START /B xterm -display 127.0.0.1:0
Is there any possible way to get rid of the extra cmd console?
I suppose the xterm has to somehow detach itself from the cmd console or
something of that nature.
Thanks
