Dear Cygwin users, I am trying to install kinput2 (Version 3.1) and canna (Version 3.6) in order to input Japanese characters into XFIG, which runs on my copy of Cygwin/XFree86 on a Windows XP PC. I downloaded both tar files from the Debian web site and successfully installed and compiled both of them through Cygwin. However, when I type "kinput2" in Cygwin to start the program, I see a Windows (not Cygwin!) error stating that the application could not be started because file libcanna16.dll could not be found. However, I checked the files extracted from the canna tar file and found that this dll file actually does exist. Adding the directory in which this file was stored to the system environment variable PATH did not help. Neither did making a soft link from the directory in which kinput2.exe was stored to the file libcanna16.dll. Does anyone know how to get kinput2 to see this file?
I apologize if this is an old question. I did check the web for information, but most of it is in Japanese, which I haven't learned well enough to read yet. Yours truly, John P.
