emacs installed but won't run


   I have tried to install cygwin on a new Toshiba netbook (XP).
Many things (perl, vi, info) are working as expected.

   When I type "emacs", I get a new command prompt, with no other
messages.

   Below I give some things which lead me to believe that most
of the installation worked.   I have tried to attach output from
the cygcheck program. Thanks for any help.
