True-type Fonts on *nixes and Cygwin XFree also?

[Jean-Claude Gervais]

Hi,

        I recently read this article

http://corefonts.sourceforge.net/

        And applied the procedure to my Linux machine.

        My question is, how relevant is this to Cygwin?
        Meaning, does Cygwin use True-Type and anti-aliased fonts?

        If Cygwin can use anti-aliased fonts, how do you get that working?

        The installation procedure has a few steps that pertain to the RPM module.
        I tried downloading the Cygwin port of it, and the link seems to be broken.

        Does anyone have information on anti-aliased fonts on Cygwin?
