That did it. I can now run fontforge. Thanks again! (Surely cygwin packaging could have been done similar to the Make model so a single "install the latest fontforge" command would automatically install cygwin, x windows, and all necessary libraries, with nothing unnecesary? It seems weird to have to spend hours of realtime to get the advice necessary to get an ordinary program running, not to mention having to use two different diagnostic tools, cygcheck and the module search page.)
