Hi Brandon. I used to have similar problems, and occasionally do when
starting directly under Cygwin. I have been using a script from Huidae Cho
that starts cygwin, starts and Xwindow and then starts grass with one click.
I have attached the script as "grass61.txt" so it doesn't get nabbed by
email filters. Rename it "grass61.bat" drop it in the cywin folder and
grass should start after a double click. If you are running a different
version of grass you can edit the script with the appropriate file name.
Good luck.

Dear all...
I have done, in the past, an application of flooding inundation using
HEC-RAS and GRASS...
it was quite simple...
I have performed the simulation inside HEC-RAS and then I have put the water
level surface obtained at each river cross-section into GRASS (simply
drawing a line and adding the water level surface as an
attribute)
then v.surf.rst with correct tension values and I have obtained the
simulated water surface!!!
then r.mapcalc with the DEM to obtain the water level over the ground!!!
what about r.hydro.casc2d??? it was a module of grass5.4 I remember it was
able to simulate flood-routing!!
the problem is it wasn't able to simulate bridge, culvert, ecc...
it would be nice if someone could improve it!!! :-) I'm not sufficiently
experienced!!
bye
Ivan

Hey all,
I'm 100% new to GRASS, and just installed it via Cygwin onto my Windows 2000
system.
The problem is, after installing the Xfree86 base package for cygwin, the
grass package, and copying over the grass60.bat file for startup, it's not
working. The cygwin/X server system tray icon appears, the black command
window pops up stating "Startxwin.bat - starting on windows 98/2000/xp",
then a grass60 black window pops up and immediately disappears. That's the
end of it. The cygwin/X server remains in the systray still functioning, but
GRASS does nothing.
I have been using Cygwin for a few months now on this machine to run Swarm
2.2, with no problems at all.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I thank you all in advance,
Cheers,
Brandon

hallo,
on windows, I use following approach:
1) start cygwin
2) write command "startxwin.bat" end press <Return>
The X logo should appear in the systray, new "white" x-terminal
should appear
3) you can close the "black" cygwin window
4) grass61 in the new "white" x-terminal

Thanks for the tip, Jachym. Unfortunately, that yielded the exact same
result. I have attached a jpg image of the last screen I see. Grass starts
to load, but then goes blank and then quits, within a few seconds.
Thanks again all,
Brandon

REM The path in the CYGWIN_ROOT environment variable assignment assume
REM that Cygwin is installed in a directory called 'cygwin' in the root
REM directory of the current drive. You will only need to modify
REM CYGWIN_ROOT if you have installed Cygwin in another directory. For
REM example, if you installed Cygwin in \foo\bar\baz\cygwin, you will need
REM to change \cygwin to \foo\bar\baz\cygwin.
REM
REM This batch file will almost always be run from the same drive (and
REM directory) as the drive that contains Cygwin/X, therefore you will
REM not need to add a drive letter to CYGWIN_ROOT. For example, you do
REM not need to change \cygwin to c:\cygwin if you are running this
REM batch file from the C drive.

REM Brief descriptions of XWin-specific options:
REM
REM -screen scr_num [width height]
REM Enable screen scr_num and optionally specify a width and
REM height for that screen.
REM Most importantly, any parameters specified before the first -screen
REM parameter apply to all screens. Any options after the first -screen
REM parameter apply only to the screen that precedes the parameter.
REM Example:
REM XWin -fullscreen -screen 0 -screen 1 -depth 8 -screen 2
REM All screens will be fullscreen, but screen 2 will be depth 8, while
REM screens 0 and 1 will be the default depth (whatever depth Windows
REM is currently running at).
REM -multiwindow
REM Start an integrated Windows-based window manager. Not to be used
REM with -rootless nor -fullscreen.
REM -rootless
REM Use a transparent root window with an external window manager
REM (such as twm). Not to be used with -multiwindow nor
REM with -fullscreen.
REM -fullscreen
REM Use a window as large as possible on the primary monitor.
REM -multiplemonitors
REM Create a root window that covers all monitors on a
REM system with multiple monitors.
REM -clipboard
REM Enable the integrated version of xwinclip. Do not use in
REM conjunction with the xwinclip program.
REM -depth bits_per_pixel
REM Specify the screen depth to run at (in bits per pixel) using a
REM DirectDraw-based engine in conjunction with the -fullscreen
REM option, ignored if the -fullscreen option is not specified.
REM By default, you will be using a DirectDraw based engine on any
REM system that supports it.
REM -unixkill
REM Trap Ctrl+Alt+Backspace as a server shutdown key combination.
REM -nounixkill
REM Disable Ctrl+Alt+Backspace as a server shutdown key combination (default).
REM Example:
REM XWin -unixkill -screen 0 -screen 1 -screen 2 -nounixkill
REM Screens 0 and 1 will allow Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, but screen 2 will not.
REM -winkill
REM Trap Alt+F4 as a server shutdown key combination (default).
REM -nowinkill
REM Disable Alt+F4 as a server shutdown key combination.
REM -scrollbars
REM Enable resizing of the server display window. Do not use in conjunction
REM with -multiwindow nor with -rootless.
REM -nodecoration
REM Draw the server root window without a title bar or border.
REM Do not use with -mutliwindow nor with -rootless.
REM -lesspointer
REM Hide the Windows mouse cursor anytime it is over any part of the
REM window, even if Cygwin/X is not the window with the focus.
REM -refresh rate_in_Hz
REM Specify a refresh rate to use when used with the -fullscreen option.
REM -trayicon
REM Enable the tray icon (default).
REM -notrayicon
REM Disable the tray icon.
REM Example:
REM XWin -notrayicon -screen 0 -screen 1 -screen 2 -trayicon
REM Screens 0 and 1 will not have tray icons, but screen 2 will.
REM -emulate3buttons [timeout]
REM Emulate 3 button mouse with an optional timeout in milliseconds.
REM -xf86config
REM Specify an XF86Config-style configuration file.
REM -keyboard
REM Specify a keyboard device from the configuration file.
REM
REM Startup the programs
REM
REM Startup the X Server with the integrated Windows-based window manager.
REM WARNING: Do not use 'xwinclip' in conjunction with the ``-clipboard''
REM command-line parameter for XWin. Doing so would start two clipboard
REM managers, which is never supposed to happen.
run XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error
REM Startup an xterm, using bash as the shell.
run xterm -sl 1000 -sb -rightbar -ms red -fg yellow -bg black -e /usr/bin/bash -l grass61
REM
REM Startup the twm window manager.
REM WARNING: Do not use an external window manager in conjunction with
REM the ``-multiwindow'' command-line parameter for XWin. Doing so
REM would start two window managers, which is never supposed to happen.
REM
REM run twm
REM Set a background color. Only needed when not using -multwindow for XWin.
REM run xsetroot -solid aquamarine4
