Lapo,
Do you plan to shamelessly copy nano from Ports soon as well?
Enchant is a spell checking abstraction library supporting several
backends. It is a requirement for several GNOME and KDE components and
is already included in Fedora, Debian, and other major distros.

You could also try an X11 VNC client. Cygwin Ports provides TigerVNC,
Vinagre (GNOME), and KRDC (KDE).
The following packages have been updated in the Cygwin distribution:
*** xorg-server-1.9.0-2
*** xorg-server-dmx-1.9.0-2
This package contains XWin and the other X.Org X11 servers.
A new 1.9 release candidate has also been made available as a test release.
This will be made stable in

I tried this tutorial: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/dll.html
The DLL source is mydll.c. The DLL is linked with gcc -o myprog

For the DLL I tried different names:

* cygmydll.dll

mydll.dll and cygmydll.dll are found by -lmydll.
