RE: rxvt: Cannot load color "Black" - Aborting

Hi Suhaib,

I certainly used bzip2 and tar for all the xfree86 files, and did the 
unzipping from cygwin bash.  I don't think that Winzip can handle bz2 
files.

Are you sure you did not extract rgb.txt file with Winzip or another 
Windows zip software, instead of bzip2 and tar?
