Can someone tell me how to configure cygXWin to use a nicer window

You're going to have to do better than that.


I assume cygXwin means the Xwin X server that comes with Cygwin so as to
be on topic for this list.

What does nicer mean? ie. What things are you missing that you want.

What do you think the default is? ie. How are you starting Xwin?



Ok I guess I need to be more specific. I have a brand new install of cygwin. I have been using cygwin for a while but this is my first try with the Xwin x server. I just run the startxwin.bat file to start it. What I want is to be able to change colors and font sizes on the fly and some way of opening more windows or other x applications with a menu of some kind.
