After looking thorugh the cygwin mailing lists, I figured that regex is
not available under cygwin-b20.
So I downloaded it from ftp.gnu.org. I then changed a few lines in
config.status and got LyX to compile ...
... and after changing
#include <regex.h>
to
extern "C" {
#include <regex.h>
}
in LRegex.C I also got it to link. Of course it doens simply run but
SIGSEV's on startup.
But !!! If I use Steven's startup script, then the home directory and
LYX_DIR_10X get set correctly and it starts up und runs just fine.
So maybe you guys have any suggestions what to do about the regex stuff.
I put a request for inclusion in today but it doesn really look like
cygwin is progressing much these days.
Maybe one can include regex with LyX, its small and GNU GPL'ed. Then NT
users can specify
--with-included-regex upon configuration ?
What do you guys think
