xview is a user interface toolkit with the look and feel of Sun's pre-X11 SunView. This is occasionally requested, mainly by people with ancient scientific applications which use this toolkit.
The cygwin xview package provided by physionet.org hasn't worked for a number of years due to a bug in xview's use of XAllocID which is fatal with a modern Xlib [1]. This package was made by generating the diff between debian patch 19 and physionet.org's patch 19c sources to identify cygwin build changes, then applying that on top of the current debian patch 28. This is in Fedora and Debian. setup.hint: category: X11 requires: libtirpc1 libX11_6 libXext6 font-sun-misc font-bh-dpi75 font-bh-lucidatypewriter-dpi75 sdesc: "XView toolkit" ldesc: "XView is a user interface toolkit with the look and feel of Sun's pre-X11 SunView.
