But of course it is not only cygwin.dll, but it is also libz.dll, then a few
clients, e.g. xmodmap and rxvt, then it is libx11.dll, libICE.dll and a few
others, I will need rgb.txt and some fonts (hopefully not all 20MB bzipped) and
this and that (imagine a cygwin free computer as a start). Of course I will not
need *.h, *.a , no /include directory, but a little bit of /lib directory. So
it might be good to have such a list with minimum requirements or a package
with appropriate structure for download.

Holger
