Thanks Holger. Now this works perfectly. It does open
up a Windows cmd window – which remains open until I
finish with my app – but I can live with that. 

Thanks Phil Betts – I think now the checkX script also
works. I think my mistake was I was leaving a space
between set DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0 and & - Thankfully
Holger pointed this out. 

O.O.
