Please forgive a silly question. I've rebuild the previous release (ghostscript-6.51-1) with X support (mainly for use with xdvik in order to view dvi's with postscript illustrations).
While this were not a major hassle (just patch src/unix-gcc.mak a little, don't forget to set XLIBS=Xt SM ICE Xext X11), are there any reason not to release X-enabled binaries for ghostscript? Will gs then not run without the X runtime libraries?

The GNU 'standard' and 'other' Ghostscript font collections are included for convenience. <snip> -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
