Cygwin X-Windows & Crestron SimplWindows Cross Compilerclashing

["Matthew Snow" <MSnow at ldsbc dot edu>]

Neither will work while the other is installed.  For testing purposes:

Cygwin error message when running startxwin.bat:

A fatal error has occurred and Cygwin/X will now exit.
Please open /tmp/XWin.log for more information.

Vendor:  The Cygwin/X Project
Release:  6.8.2.0-4
Contact:  cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com 
XWin was started with the following command-line:

/cygdrive/d/Cygwin/usr/X11 -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error



SimplWindows error message while compiling a project:

Could not copy SIMPL + output file to [dir path][filename].spl.



I've noticed that both Cygwin and Crestron SimplWindows share the same
directory in the registery keys which is HKEY_CURRENT-USER > Software >
Cygnus Solutions >Cygwin.  The SimplWindows however adds the additional
directory / to the registry so we have Cygwin > mounts V2 > /.  This
contains keys:

(Default)
flags
native  which points to D:\Crestron\ColdFire

I've found that exporting the registry configurations for each and then
importing them does nothing however.  I've also noticed that when I run
Cygwin's setup.exe it thinks that D:\Crestron\ColdFire is the root
directory I selected for the previous instal of Cygwin.
