If it's in the cygwin distro, that will tell you which package you need installed. http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=libXm.dll Looks like it's shipped with lesstif. You can also use the -p option to cygcheck to search from the shell: /artimi/software/firmware $ cygcheck -p libXm.dll Found 3 matches for libXm.dll. lesstif/lesstif-0.93.91-6 lesstif lesstif/lesstif-0.93.94-2 lesstif lesstif/lesstif-0.94.4-1 lesstif /artimi/software/firmware $ cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
