I re-installed the yes (the other text is whatever the imake configuration claimed at 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: http://invisible-island.net/xterm/ ftp://invisible-island.net/xterm/ -- Thomas E.

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? -Doug Spearot -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/

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. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
