Re: Wish/tcltk & DISPLAY is not set


Alberto,

When I execute "wish" under cygwin (wish test.tcl), I get the following
error message:

/usr/bin/xterm: DISPLAY is not set

I think this problem has been reported in 2006 @
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/msg00090.html
 &
http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin@cygwin.com/msg65756.html

I checked my tcltk version in my cygwin install:
it is  tcltk/tcltk-20080420-1

Does it mean that this problem reported in 2006 was not corrected in
the 2008 version ? or do I miss something ?


Do you have the X server running?

Yes, I obviously started the X server of Cygwin (- using startxwin.sh)


regards, Francois
