hi all

i tried to install texmacs at the lycee on a windowd pc

i installer first mixtex

then i did this

1. Download CygTeXmacs.zip
<ftp://ftp.texmacs.org/pub/TeXmacs/cygwin/CygTeXmacs.zip> (82Mb).
If you don't have ftp access, then you may also load
<http://www.texmacs.org/Download/ftp/cygwin/CygTeXmacs.zip> this
file from the web.
2. Unzip the file in the directory C:\CygTeXmacs (or any other
directory without whitespace characters).
3. Launch TeXmacs by clicking on C:\CygTeXmacs\starttexmacs.bat.

but: when i click as step 3 says, nothing happens, a fantom black windows appears a while, without saying longer enough to have time to read what is written in it.

have i done anything wrong ?

One thing that could be missing is that you need
to start Cygwin first. Then, a better way to start
TeXmacs is just to type "texmacs [Enter]" in an xterm.
