oh, you may need some additionals like gtk and gnome stuff but there's a site that specifie's notes on how to get allot of the gnome libraries and packages to compile on cygwin. blackbox-0.62.0 works like a dream here! you can find it on sourceforge.net there are also several method of starting xfree86 under cygwin and i strongly believe that this blackbox and gnome libraries should be included on the cygwin-xfree site! -roger On Mon, 2002-02-04 at 14:25, Harold Hunt wrote: > Sean, > > The list of Cygwin/XFree86 ports is at: > > http://xfree86.cygwin.com/ported-software.html > > Be sure to check out Eric Lassauge's extensive list of ports: > http://lassauge.free.fr/cygwin/ > > Harold > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Sean LeBlanc > > Sent: Monday, February 04, 2002 9:56 AM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: Window manager? > > > > > > I see in the FAQ that XFCE and vtwm are available as pre-compiled > > binaries. > > The FAQ doesn't mention where to get them, though.
