I install Cygwin every couple of years and then use it continuously
without updates between those installations. I installed it on a new
laptop today, and I'm trying to work through issues.
The current issue is running Emacs from the desktop.
I had a shortcut working for a long time that does the following:
-------------
C:\cygwin64\bin\run2.exe --display 127.0.0.1:0.0 /usr/local/bin/emacs.xml
-------------
The "run2" application doesn't appear to exist. I checked my notes,
and I can't tell whether I installed this from somewhere else the last
time I did this.
Just install the run2 package. It's still available.
