Hi Rick, I have the same symptoms. I mentioned them on 1.5.4-1: Problem with XEmacs, fonts, and subprocesses thread. This and that thread is about the same issue. I personally build XEmacs myself. I tried XEmacs 21.4.14, 21.5.14, 21.5.5. I compiled all under Cygwin 1.5.5 to no awail. I used Cywin 1.3.20 with XEmacs 21.5.5 for a good half a year every day. Here is my CYGWIN env CYGWIN = `notty notitle glob' What is yours?
