Thanks for answers.
While searching on google, it seems that lots of vista users are experiencing problems with cygwin and other "linux-windows" tools due to restrictions in vista
Apparently, a virtual machine as VMWARE is the only solution to make texmacs work under vista.

The message with Cygtexmacs is the following : "A fatal error has occured and Cygwin/X will now exit".


The log is :

_XSERVTransmkdir: ERROR: euid != 0,directory /tmp/.X11-unix will not be created.

Wine? VMWare?
Wine allows some Windows programs to be run on Unix; it does not help Linux or Unix programs run on Windows.

But it is impossible to make it work on Vista, even if I choose the XP
SP2 compatibility mode, I have a error message.

What does the error message say?
