startxwin.bat

["Eskild Busch" <eskildb at ifi dot uio dot no>]

Hi!

I Have a problem to get my cygwin/XFree to work. When I follow the manual I hav some problems.

1. To start the Cygwin/XFree it says to 
Run /usr/X11R6/bin/startxwin.bat by double-clicking it in Windows Explorer.

I did'nt have a file whit this name, but a file named startx. I did rename this one to startxwin.bat and run it, but this did'nt work.

When it comes to the line 
then 
defaultclientargs=$userclientrc
else if
the output form dos is bad command or filename

2. When I try to rn starx from the bash promt I get:
$startx
BASH: starx: commando not found

Do you have any idea whats wrong?

thanks 
Eskild Busch

PS. Here is the startx file I changed to startxwin.bat

# This is just a sample implementation of a slightly less primitive
# interface than xinit.  It looks for user .xinitrc and .xserverrc
# files, then system xinitrc and xserverrc files, else lets xinit choose
# its default.  The system xinitrc should probably do things like check
# for .Xresources files and merge them in, startup up a window manager,
# and pop a clock and serveral xterms.
#
# Site administrators are STRONGLY urged to write nicer versions.
