I've been using cygwin for very long time. Back in the day, we used to be able to create a shortcut and it automatically starts X and starts an Xterm with the preferences saved in a file.
Today, I'm finding myself launching xlaunch, and then clicking throw a few dialogs to start xterm. Is there a way I can shortcut all this and just click one shortcut to get the result?
Thank you
Solution using startxwin
that belongs to xinit
package
Create you customized script from the baseline:
cp /etc/defaults/etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc ~/.startxwinrc
remove a bit of the duplication at the begin of ~/.startxwinrc
to avoid a recursive call and at the end add how many xterm calls
you want before the Menu manager.
/usr/bin/xterm &
exec /usr/bin/xwin-xdg-menu
