Hi,
Has anyone out there ported the latest version of WindowMaker (0.60) to
cygwin? I'm having problems with opening files on text mounts. I've tried
patching the code myself but can't quite track down the offending
algorithms. Here is the specific error I see:
wmsetbg warning: could not open domain file
/usr/kwright/GNUstep/Defaults/WindowMaker
this despite the fact that it does open the file and does write to it. (I
know it's just a warning).
I'm also having problems opening tiff files. I patched the libtiff.a to open
files with binary and now it opens the tiff files but I still get the
warning:
TIFFFillStrip: /usr/local/GNUstep/Apps/WPrefs.app/tiff/smooth.tiff: Read
error at scanline 4294967295; got 260 bytes, expected 1865.
More text vs. binary problems... sigh...

That is the tiff library problem. i noticed that too the tiff lib ports
available from Cygwin users
seems to work only on binary mounted disk.
Someone needs to port tiff properly to Cygwin.
