Hello folks,

Is there a recommended way to get 1.2.0pre4 to link on Cygwin?

I'm using recent cygwin, bxforms-0.89 with libforms.a in place. LyX
compiles OK. On linking, however, it seems that libforms.a isn't
linked against: all references from the frontends bit are complained
to be undefined.

I can tell make to link against libforms.a manually, however, in this
case I get reference problems within xforms such as
"/usr/local/lib/libforms.a(canvas.o)(.text+0xe07):canvas.c: undefined
reference to `XClearWindow'", so it looks that XForms has linking
trouble with X11. I do have the X libs in place, however.

Before I start to mess things up completely, I'd be grateful for a
professional hint or two :-)

However, I'm glad that I've even got as far as this on Windows. From
what I've seen on Linux so far, it's looking that the agelong wait for
1.2.0 was worth it.

Thanks in advance - Philipp
