I made a little experiment and the above sentence is not true: if I start
XWindows from an icon/shortcut (using "C:\cygwin\bin\run.exe -p /usr/X11R6/bin
XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error -dpi 100") XWin starts fine but
my .xinitrc (and .xsession) is not used... XWin does not know what user started it.

So to run the application I would also need an icon/shortcut for the application.
