Dear All, esp-r now opens but it does not simulate. Any idea? I look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Arianna

Thank you All, I re-installed cygwin and I can now open esp-r. I hope it lasts, kind regards. Arianna

Arianna,

The cygwin environment I work on does not shut down xwin after I log out 
of cygwin I get the same problem when I then log back on. The work 
around is

1. From cygwin command line type ps
2. Note the process id for xwin
3. Type kill -9 process id no.
4. Type startxwin.exe

This should restore the xterm window

Regards,
Aizaz
