Interesting! Why didn't I see that one coming..? I tried this and got an interesting result. I generally start Emacs as an X client under Cygwin on MS-Windows. When I started "emacs -mm", Emacs came up in (I think) full-screen size, but it was partially off-screen, so I had to reposition it and hit the Maximize button anyway. I suspect that there is a mismatch between Cygwin's Emacs 24.3.1 and the X-Window interface under Cygwin. Anyone else notice the problem? -- David Masterson Programmer At Large
