It would also be useful for those who actually produce patches to file bug reports and attach patches to fix problems so that they can be tracked accordingly.

Two old X11 problems
Hi, I will refer to two issues that have been around from two years, they are more X11 problems than Cygwin/X problems, but as I understand you Cygwin/X people are close to the people that can fix them. 1- The xman program is not compatible with new versions of man. The program should be modified in order to call nroff with the -c option. See: http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin-xfree/2004-03/msg00299.html 2- The us_intl keyboard of X11 is very limited. It doesn't have dead accents, and lacks of reversed "!" and reversed "?". The Windows US international layout is much better. A us_intl_win layout has been proposed that functions like the Windows US-international.

X11 problems
I can't run X programs from my PC anymore, across the VPN. How do I turn on X11 forwarding with cygwin? Will that solve the problem? I am running a version of cygwin that I installed in Aug 2003. cgywin is using XFree86 - X11R6. triton# echo $DISPLAY localhost:10.0 triton# ./ezf EZ Fibre Agent started on port 127.0.0.1:10001 Starting EZ Fibre...
