Hi, ago
I use CYGWIN_NT-5.1 with gcc 3.4.4 to compile cygpeace-0.0.0.
<http://www.freedesktop.org/%7Eago/cygpeace/cygpeace-0.0.0-bin.tar.bz2>
tut it failed with error:
./configure
.....
./make
...
dll/ui.so/X11.cc: In member function `virtual HWND__*
X11::GetForegroundWindow()
':
dll/ui.so/X11.cc:295: error: invalid conversion from `uint32_t*' to `UINT*'
dll/ui.so/X11.cc:295: error: initializing argument 2 of `virtual

Bests,

advice how to implement it. Wine and VNC are not my choice.
An alternative to Terminal client or cytrix is rdesktop. But besides that
there is no working solution to wrap windows programs with X11. You might
want to take a look at cygpeace which is not much more than a prove of
concept which allowed to export winmine over x11.

Before begging X gurus (which btw is the wrong group to ask) you should
check the win32-x11 archives http://sourceware.org/ml/win32-x11/ starting
with July - September, 2002 until July - September, 2004. Some techniques
for wrapping and redirecting windows GDI calls to X11 were discussed there
but most of the initial activity vaporized after few months.
Basicly there are a few ways which might work:
- build a display driver which uses X11 as backend
x11_drv from wine might provide the conversion to X11 calls
- wrap GDI calls from applications with own, X11 aware implementations
cygpeace aproach
- Check how Terminal Client works and implement a backend which uses X11
instead of RDP

BTW: Use rdesktop.
