This is a actuall great, because it means you have got a fully working
TeXmacs. You just have to start X11 before running TeXmacs.
As said in the web page be sure that you have done each step of the
following:
* Launch Cygwin from your desktop using the link.
* In the Cygwin window, launch the X server using XWin& and the
window manager using fvwm2&.
* In the X window, try launching an Xterm using the popup menu
when pressing the right-hand button.
Enter the command "texmacs" in this new Window labelled Xterm. Then
everything should work as promised. I think you missed the last two
steps and entered "texmacs" directly in the first window.
Yours,
Ingolf
