Already had it.


startxwin now starts XWin in multiwindow mode. If you want
the old behaviour edit >/usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.bat <snip>
and remove the -multiwindow option

Oh, sorry, that is because a problem with the way that XWin and 'run' interact. In other words, you can't use 'run' with XWin in certain modes, one of which is the mode that you are using. Instead use 'start /B' if you are on an NT-based platform, else, you're stuck with a shell script for the time being. Sorry.
