Re: XWin design suggestion

Sylvain,

Because, as I have reiterated over and over, XWin.exe is a Windows 
application, not a Cygwin application.

As an aside, one of my goals is to have a stand-alone version of 
XWin.exe, building off of Suhaib's work, that does not depend upon 
Cygwin at all.  It will mostly be a proof of concept, but it would also 
be cool if X.org accepted the code into their sample implementation. 
Granted, it wouldn't have all of the libraries and programs, but it 
would be an X Server that ran on Windows.

Thus, I want to avoid making XWin.exe a Cygwin app.  Others may not 
agree, but that is certainly my goal.
