Just a guess: You've set the HOME environment variable in lower case.  Try it
in UPPER CASE.

You need to set CompKeyDB in ENV.

SET ComKeyDB=C:\usr\X11R6.4\lib\X11\xfig\CompKeyDB  (for example, put it
in your NT ENV or autoexec.bat on Win 9x)

Also set XKeySymDB and XErrorDB pointing to the directory where those files
are.

Hello,

after days of experiences trying to configure a X-Server, I'm now able to
run my xfig and it's great. But now I have another problem: Xfig tells me
the following:

Warning: Unable to load any usable fontset
Can't open compose key file '/usr/X11R6.4/lib/X11/xfig/CompKeyDB',
        no multi-key sequences available

I have this file and all the other files xfig can't find (as for example
the help-file). I guess it is a problem with some path setting:

I have set the following environments:

set display=localhost:0.0
SET MAKE_MODE=UNIX
set home=e:/cygnus/cygwin-b20
set XFIGLIBDIR=~/usr/X11R6.4/lib/X11/xfig
SET
PATH=e:/cygnus/cygwin-b20/h-i586-cygwin32/bin;e:/cygnus/cygwin-b20/usr/X11R6
.4/bin

(everthing after "set path=" is in ONE line)
The subdirectory usr is directly in the home-directory. I'm a very newby
when it comes to UNIX and UNIX-Directory -management.

Any help appreciated, thanks
Michael
