Hi Art,

        I did receive your message on Unicon and Cygwin both
through the list and personally.  Many thanks for the help.
Since then I have tried to compile Unicon under Cygwin and 
have failed.  My setup is somewhat different than yours.  
I have Windows XP and only a C drive. 

        I encountered several problems before I quit.  The
setpath shell script replaced my original Cygwin path with
a new one that did not include the normal bin directories
containing utilities like make, cp, and rm.  This prevented
some make files from functioning properly.  I was unsure
about augmenting the path for fear of invoking the wrong
version of the compiler or something like that but I
eventually did.  Some of the configuration files seemed to
depend on the exact directory structure including the
presence of a d: drive and I was able to correct some of
these problems but not all of them.  My knowledge in this
area is very limited; I was, for example, unaware that
you could symbolically link directories.  The final 
failure I believe was due to not being able to exactly
duplicate your directory structure. 

     I am hoping that either Icon or Unicon will be 
officially ported to Cygwin in the near future.  I
have a pile of Icon and Unicon programs on Sun
Solaris that I would like to move to Cygwin.
