I just installed the cygwin Emacs for X. I have never used X. When I try 
to start Emacs now I get the rather incomprehensible:

   $ emacs
   emacs: Cannot connect to X server localhost:0.0.
   Check the DISPLAY environment variable or use `-d'.
   Also use the `xhost' program to verify that it is set to permit
   connections from your machine.

What?
