* geomview under cygwin @ 2004-01-11 3:20 B. Marchand 2004-01-11 16:41 ` Gerrit P. Haase 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: B. Marchand @ 2004-01-11 3:20 UTC (permalink / raw) To: cygwin-xfree I noticed several people posted some geomview related questions back in 2002. So, maybe someone will know the answer to this question. I followed the instructions on http://www.rzuser.uni-heidelberg.de/~mfoehl/Geomview_under_Windows.html about compiling geomview under cygwin. I had to acquire the forms library for Win32 from a different source (http://ftp.fh-wolfenbuettel.de/links/unix/desktop/xforms/NT/GnuWIN32/), since they seem to be temporarily unavailable from the xforms website (https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/xforms). At any rate, everything seems to configure and compile fine. However, when I try to just execute geomview nothing happens - nothing shows on the screen and there are no geomview related processes running. No error messages are sent to the screen so I don't know what is going on. Any ideas as to what the problem may be? Thanks. --B. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
