I want to run DDLab and I have Windows XP.  DDLab can be run using Cygwin/X among other things, and I decided to use it.
 
Coming out of the Cygwin/X setup, I got the following error messages:
 
warning: locale is not supported by c library, locale unchanged
 
Also, I tried s.t.a.r.t.x.d.m.c.p..b.a.t. in bash 3.2 and got the following fatal error message:
 
/usc/bin/xwin -query 10.0.0.1 -nodirection -lesspointer 
 
I've not used Linux before.  When I googled the "locale is not supported by c library" message, I found a bewildering array of prior similar problems, numerous futile requests for help, and (I think) some fixes that may have worked that I didn't understand.  
 
Can you tell me how to get on track?
 
Regards,
 
David Sicks

Chapter 4 of the Cygwin/X user's guide [1] should tell you how to do whatever 
it is you want to do.

If you still have problems, please read [2]
