not 100% on topic, but this may help. if you want to know if you have something installed from one of the cygwin packages, try the attached script. it will search through all installed packages and look for the name you supply, e.g. whichpackage xterm.exe gives (on my machine): ------- xterm /usr/bin/xterm.exe so it's installed in a package called "xterm" and installed to /usr/bin. in your case it would have come up with no results, which indicates the application isn't installed from any package. at which point, it's usually worth looking through all the available packages in setup. this is similar to "cygcheck -f /usr/bin/xterm" but you can use search patterns and don't need to know where the file you are searching on is installed (because "cygcheck -f xterm" doesn't work, but then you could use locate first. as always there are a zillion ways to achieve the same tricks) hth, mark -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com [mailto:cygwin-xfree-owner@cygwin.com] On Behalf Of Meadows, Marty Sent: 05 January 2005 19:34 To: 'cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com' Subject: xterm I've downloaded cygwin/x to my windows xp platform. In /usr/X11R6/bin I see the following x clients: xhost, xdpyinfo, xclock, xeyes ... but I don't see xterm. Shouldn't I have an xterm? I also don't see a startx or startxwin.bat file anyplace in the cygwin/x freeware ... and I don't see any X-startup-scripts stuff ... anywhere. Seems like I'm missing some important pieces to the puzzle. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
