Good morning list,
I have got my CYWGIN setup very nicely in Windows XP now with lots of
help from the list - however I have one last thing that I would like to
try and sort out. I would apprecaite any ideas anyone has.
I have configured my machine to start X on startup and ask me for my SSH
key passphrase - this is all working well. I have created a shortcut to
a batch file that will start up XTerm for me - however it leaves a DOS
window for each XTerm that I have running and I would like for it to not
do this. Something like hiding the DOS box (as with win-assh-askpass)
but I have not found a way of doing it.
My first thought was to start XTerm without a batch file - however when
I do this i get the message saying that the system cannot find the
cygwin.dll.
Thanks for any help in advance,
Russell
