"cannot open display"

[richard goldstein]

Hello,

Thanks for helping me.  I turned off my McAfee firewall and virus scans, 
but, unfortunately, running "startxwin.bat" gave the same error message 
as before (reproduced below). Can you give some further advice?

Thanks,
Richard Goldstein

I have recently installed the entire Cywin package on my Dell Dimension 
3000, Windows XP.  It works fine until I run xmgrace, or xfig.  Then I 
get the error message "cannot open display".  I have tried "export 
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0", and "startxwin.bat".  They give me the message 
below:

Any advice you can send me will be most welcome.

Thanks,
Richard Goldstein
