Thank you for the response Thomas. I downloaded the source from the website that you listed below. When I try to run the 'configure' file that you created to build XTERM, I get a number of error messages (all of which say the same thing): "The procedure entry point getline could not be located in the dynamic link library cygwin1.dll" Then I get in the xterm window: $ configure checking build system type... i686-pc-cygwin checking host system type... i686-pc-cygwin configuring for cygwin checking for gcc... no checking for cc... no checking for cc... no checking for cl... no configure: error: no accpetbale cc found in $PATH Am I missing a component of X development?
something - but I don't know what. The config.log file would have whatever error messages are actually available. It sounds as if you
don't have gcc installed (though also I noted the last time I installed cygwin that the base install lacks development libraries). This is probably something you can ask about on the regular cygwin mailing list. -- Thomas E.
