Actually I have a system with a rather old cygwin installation. WindowMaker surely works fine on the system. In the old system WindowMaker is version 0.80.0-2 in contrast to the new system having version 0.80.2-1. The old wmaker.exe is linked against cygtiff3.dll. Since their cygtiff3.dll are identical in two systems the old wmaker.exe also works fine on the new system. I believe I have not recompiled any TIFF packages. For now I will not go further because I'm not using WindowMaker. It seems too hard for me to track down. Takuma Murakami ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
