I'm a little confused about GNOME on Cygwin. Cygwin installer claims to have
a whole GNOME section, but I can't find basic applications like
gnome-terminal or gnome-text-editor. Google shows there are ports of GNOME
for Cygwin; but then why does the installer have a GNOME section that only
seems to have libraries and bitmaps?
Because those ports aren't part of the distribution and are, therefore,
not supported by cygwin.com.
