startx does open a window; however, I was hoping to
open multiple shell in one window.
In the old version of Cygwin/X that I had, if I stated
X, then one large window would come up and then I can
use the menu that came up with a click of a mouse
button to open a shell.
Is this no longer possible?
You're thinking of running Xwin in rootless mode with an external window
manager -- whichever window manager you had (e.g., openbox). Yes, it's
still possible, you just have to specify the right parameters to
Xwin.exe in startxwin.bat.
