You'll have to build a DLL if you're not already (really) doing that. I don't know if this will solve your problem but given the information you've provided so far, it makes sense to question your implied assumption. Larry Original Message: ----------------- From: Paul Grinberg gri6507 AT yahoo DOT com Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 10:25:36 -0700 (PDT) To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: Eterm / Imlib2 / freetype Hello, I was trying to find a terminal not only capable of supporting transparency, but also capable of tinting (or shading, if you will) the transparent background. rxvt does not seem to handle this. I found Eterm to be a feasible solution. Problem is that to compile Eterm, I need imlib2 (I could not find any reference to anyone building this under cygwin successfully), which, in turn, requires libttf.so - a dynamically linked freetype 1.2 library. I followed ths instructions for building a .so for freetype, but imlib2 does not seem to like it (dies during the configure script, saying that the library cannot be found). Is there an old libftt.so that I can download? Any suggestions for compiling freetype / imlib2? Are there any alternatives to using Eterm? Thanks, in advance, Paul Grinberg. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Search - Faster. Easier.
