When you finish with your 9term session and exit blackbox, you
can open another Windows Command Prompt, run tasklist.exe,
find the jave.exe PID and kill that process, which closes the
WeirdX window.
Running 9term in WeirdX the highlighting and cutting of text is awkward.
The bash output starting 9term as 'ioctl TIOCSCTTY: Operation not permitted' occurs
irrespective of whether one uses vcxsrv-64.1.19.2.0.installer.exe or WeirdX, though in
the former 9term and acme function properly; VcXsrv uses the variable DISPLAY=:0.
A WSL screenshot is available of p9p's rio running in VcXsrv.
NB: 9term running bash outputs what appears to be some escape sequences when executing,
e.g., the Unix utility 'ls', using p9p's rc shell doesn't result in that output, and the rc shell can be
run in an xterminal loaded in WeirdX (with or without a window manager).
This was just a test today of the WSL (Win10 AU) compiler toolchain.
