I downloaded Cygwin and got it to work. Then I downloaded FontForge
to run on Cygwin. All well and good until I tried to open FontForge.
Then I got an error message saying that cygxml2-2.dll could not be
found.
From what I was able to gather from the Cygwin site, the above file
is part
of the libxml2 package. So I went through the setup.exe process again
and made sure I downloaded and installed all the libxml2 packages.
The thing is, I'm still getting that error. What can I do?
Consult the party from whom you got FontForge? FontForge isn't part of
the Cygwin distribution so asking for help with it here isn't really
appropriate.

Yeah, I thought about that. But since the error had to do with a missing
Cygwin component and FontForge hadn't even opened, I thought the problem
might be with something I missed with Cygwin. That's why I'm asking here.
But what would be requesting the missing Cygwin component? FontForge!
Please take your questions about how to get this binary distribution of
FontForge working in the Cygwin environment to the FontForge mailing list.
That's the appropriate place for your questions on this matter.
