Let me ask this more properly. I know how to use -nounixkill and
-nowinkill to prevent keyboard initiated kills of the server.
I use a VirtuaWin on a WinXP system to provide multiple desktops.
One of them is activated via Ctrl-Alt-F4. When I do this,
it kills the running instance of Cygwin/X which apparently sees
this key combo as a "kill server" command. This is true whether
or not -nounixkill and/or -nowinkill are in use.
Ideas?
