Hi folks, Just a quick success story:
I got a new Dell laptop which came with Win2K. Yes, I plan on putting Linux on it, of course... But meanwhile, just for fun, I did this: 1) I grabbed the latest cygwin (from cygwin.sourceforge.com) by running the setup program and installing everything I could find there. 2) From the same place, I installed XFree86 4.1.0 for Cygwin. 3) I installed the xforms-0.89 stuff from the Xforms home page. 4) Next, I tried just doing the usual: ./autogen.sh; configure; make The make stopped with an error trying to compile os_win32.C. I got around this by the following: mv os_win32.C os_win32.old; cp os_unix.C os_win32.C Amazing, but true! The make finished, make install worked and LyX runs!!! Now, to get a working tetex for this setup... ---Kayvan -- Kayvan A.
