Gents, As a Cygwin developer, I don't want or need to run FGFS under X, but I would like to be able to work on it with X present, without using it. It would be "worth it" to be able to configure FGFS with "--without-X" or something similar on a Cygwin system (or automatically not use X on Cygwin). Now that XFree86, Qt, KDE, etc. are available for Cygwin (and stable) I think you will find developers wanting to have X peacefully coexist with FGFS on their Cygwin systems. Regards, Paul Paul R.
