Re: 'run xterm' fails to open a window

[jean-luc malet <jeanluc dot malet at gmail dot com>]

Hi!
I have the same kind of issue but with gvim....
however it does work with xterm....

xterm.bat :
c:\cygwin\bin\run -p /usr/X11R6/bin xterm

gvim.bat :
c:\cygwin\bin\run -p /bin gvim

1rst is working... second is launching gvim (ps -a show the process)
but gvim don't open the window....

in all case DISPLAY is correctly set, launching c:\cygwin\bin\gvim in
a cmd.com is working fine, launching the .bat in the same cmd.com
don't print anything but process is started...

any idea?
thanks
JLM
