Re: What package is GLX OpenGL from?

A nice addition to cygwin setup.exe would be a search capability for packages 
and files like is in the KDE package manager KPackage.  As the number of 
packages increases it becomes harder and harder to find what you are looking 
for.

X-version of tcl/tk on cygwin

[Mark P. Esplin]

I am in the process of porting some software from linux to the cygwin 
platform.  This software uses both tcl/tk and x-windows. The windows version 
of tcl/tk doesn't work well with x-windows.  I got errors when compiling the 
unix versions of tcl and tk from the cygwin tcl/tk sources.  To get 
tclClock.c to compile, I commented out several lines (309, 310, 349) that had 
to do with time zones. I also had to change a reference in 
tk/generic/default.h from tkWinDefault.h to tkUnixDefalt.h to get tcl/tk to 
compile. Everything seems to be working correctly now, but I am sure I will 
have problems with some of the time functions.  Is there a better way to get 
the x-windows version of tcl/tk working on cygwin?
