What do I need for Cygwin?

0

You can find the Cygwin tools and compiler at: http://www.cygwin.com/ Click on the `Install or update now!’ link, which will download a file `setup.exe’, which you can use to download everything else. (You will need to pick a mirror site; `mirrors.rcn.net’ is probably the best.) You should go ahead and install everything — you’ll get various ancillary libraries that XEmacs needs or likes, e.g. XPM, PNG, JPEG, TIFF, etc. You can also get X Windows here, if you want to compile under X. If you want to compile without X, you will need the `xpm-nox’ library, which must be specifically selected in the Cygwin netinstaller; it is not selected by default. The package has had various names. Currently it is called `cygXpm-noX4.dll’.
