Following that post, I typed xterm -v to find out what patch I was using:

Cygwin 6.8.2.0(202)

I'll assume that this means that I am using patch 202.  I re-installed the

time of building).



Am I not downloading the latest patch correctly or am I not setting up my
X-server correctly?


I suspect no one's updated the package.  The current patch level is 207.
It's simple to compile if you have the X development installed.  Source
is here:

Re: No absolute path for shell: error

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?

Make sure you have one and only one cygwin1.dll on your system.  If you do,
make sure you've rebooted after the last install you did (from setup.exe).
This is a classic message that occurs when you're running apps that expect
a more current cygwin1.dll than can be found/loaded into memory.
