Can any one help me with a nice sequence of instructions to use Cygwin32. I don't want to disturb cygnus->b19->H-* -> directory structure disturbed! 2. Do we need to set up /var /etc with mount? 3. How does one create /etc/passwd and /etc/group files on NT with Cygnus? 4. How to use man pages from cdk-man-* ? Any tool or method? 5. Vi or some alternative please? 6. Any good tools you suggest? 7. How to run X Programs? I have installed X Server (MIX Server) from TNT Lite and also have X11R6.3 libs from Mr. Mummit Khan's Site. How to configure them to work with me! Compelete instructions? Am I ambitious? 7. I have a X11/Motif program and want to run on WinNT (+cygnus). Do I need to run always X Server? Is there no way X Server forms part of my executable? If yes, please let me know how to do it! Please help me!
