I assume you're replying to my message

   http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg00681.html

Please *reply*, rather than just starting a new message, so that the 
archives will show the whole thread.

You really need to follow *all* the guidelines at

   http://cygwin.com/problems.html

including (but not limited to) attaching the requested cygcheck output.

I can't help you based on the limited information you've supplied so 
far.  For example, what do you mean by "the emacs file"?  What do you 
mean by saying that you opened it "in windows"?  And I asked you to run 
the command 'ls -l /usr/bin/emacs*', but your reply refers to 'ls-l 
usr/bin/emacs', which differs in three ways from what I wrote.  So I 
don't know what you actually did.  You should always copy and paste when 
saying what you did and what errors you got, in order to avoid 
typographical errors.
