Yes, it is possible to build OpenDX using freely-available tools.  I'm not
sure they all come with Cygwin, though.    I think Mesa and XFree86 are
coming with cygwin now, but you might still need LessTif.

I'd go ahead and get the latest source from CVS.  Its very good; we badly
need to roll a new tarball.

I don't see the SuperviseWindow problem on either my Cygwin or MSVC builds.
I think it must be a problem in the installation or in what DISPLAY is set
to.

I see a lot of talk about OpenDX and MSVC tools here.  Is it possible
to build OpenDX completely with cygwin tools?

I've installed cygwin 1.1.8, xfree4.0 (DLLs), netcdf3.4 and am trying
to compile the dx4.1.0 sources.  The problem I get into is not the
libraries yet but the configure.  From the compile errors it appears
that configure doesn't know how to configure for this build.  It seems
to be mixint "intelnt" definitions in there.

Am I trying something that will not work?  I'm trying to build it just
to try and fix the problem with SuperviseWindow crashing under cygwin.

Bill
