I download Ubuntu App for Windows to use the Fenics Library, as fenicsproject.org tells.
I installed Fenics Library.
Now i would to create a file to write my code, but when run:

I faced this similar problem a while ago, this is what I did: First install VcXsrv from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/ After installing, launch "Xlaunch" and complete the configuration. When done, open the Ubuntu terminal and type the following:

export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
. ~/.bashrc

or

export DISPLAY=localhost0.0
.~/.bashrc

Now try any gedit...

gedit

BOOOM!DONE!
