I'm trying to run tclsh with tk and I get a display error:
no display name and no $DISPLAY environment variable
Then I try the following:
export DISPLAY=:0.0
And of course it says it couldn't connect to display ":0.0".
The Cygwin/X server has been installed strictly according to http://x.cygwin.com/ . But it is documented nowhere how to start this Cygwin/X server. So I assume Cygwin/X server is started when Cygwin is started.
What do I need to do to make this work?
