OK, I put all the Cygwin files listed in the instructions in the same directory as winuqlx.
Running the uqlx.bat file initially gets stopped by the Windoze firewall. I allowed it to unblock, thinking one of the files just needed to access the network or web for something. The 'echo' statements in the batch file displays in a DOS cmd box for a few seconds, as it tries to start the XWin.exe program, then it all just vanishes, no error report or nothing. Presumably I'm not doing something right, hopefully someone has experience of this. I'll try contacting Peter Graf as I think he was involved in this port of uqlx -- Dilwyn Jones _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
