Thanks. I see the problem now. I'm a student at UC Berkeley, and using
a version of cygwin provided internally which contains only a subset of
gnu emacs. To prevent these kind of snafus in the future, I am now
going to download a full and recent version.
btw, the version listed is:
GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i686-pc-cygwin, X-toolkit) of 2004-03-22 on cm-test
