Ok I guess I need to be more specific.  I have a brand new install of 
cygwin.  I have been using cygwin for a while but this is my first try 
with the Xwin x server.  I just run the startxwin.bat file to start it.  
What I want is to be able to change colors and font sizes on the fly and 
some way of opening more windows or other x applications with a menu of 
some kind.
