It's the full Cygwin install, including XFree86.

The native one, I believe. The only Xlib.h is
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h. The TclTk is native
as well.

After I do the configure, when I type "make", nothing happens. Could

Unfortunatly, that was done with a work copy of the compiler, which I
don't have a copy of, since I'm not employed right now. Next time I
