"This release does NOT attempt to address any other known bugs, and I still have a few patch submissions sitting in my queue. Those will probably be addressed during the cygwin-1.7 transition, not before." > I think that it would be very nice if a version of RXVT so linked were > available. Not going to happen. The whole native-mode/X-mode split personality -- and allowing end users to install and use rxvt purely in native mode without requiring any X stuff installed -- demands that rxvt NOT be linked directly to the X libs. Therefore, rxvt is limited to only that set of options that are supported both by libX11 and by libW11. This does not include XIM input. However, rxvt-unicode-X /is/ linked directly to the X libs, and is configured with: rxvt-unicode (urxvt) v7.7 - released: 2006-02-21 options: xft,styles,combining,blink,iso14755,encodings=eu+vn+jp+jp-ext+kr+zh+zh-ext,fade,XPM,transparent,tint,XIM,frills,selectionscrolling,wheel,slipwheel,smart-resize,cursorBlink,pointerBlank,scrollbars=plain+rxvt+NeXT+xterm Give that one a shot. -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
