Well, what I'm talking about is using some form of Linux desktop as the system shell, so that the Win-native apps would run along side the ported *NIX apps (similar to how "seamless" works now, just with a different desktop). More of a desire to keep my Gnome environment in place while still being able to run Win apps that simply won't run in Wine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies. http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsaconf-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Cygwin-ports-general mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cygwin-ports-general
