Some company is missing out on an excellent bug tester!

I am indeed... no need to check and see there!

I'll have to try that later.

Nope... the xterm window dies at the same time that Xastir map window dies. 
As a matter of fact, the X server goes poof too! No waiting either... 
Everything associated with Cygwin just dissappears.

Wow, that sure makes you realize how much is going on behind the scenes! I 
resized the map window down so that I could watch the xterm window. I was 
able to zoom out to 128K, which made all the map data dissappear. I zoomed 
back in to 16K, expanded the window to full screen, and zoomed out to 64K. 
Poof, everything gone again.
Where can I find a log file that might have more info? Is the verbose output 
logged somewhere?
