The answer is you still need Cygwin/XFree86 from
http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/xfree. The X-server executable will not
force you to use it if you do not want it. You can use libxxx.a and libxxx.
dll for development purposes.
As far as LessTif is concerned, Lesstif now compiled pretty much of the
box, at elast libraries does, exccept mwm client which need Stiple from
bitmap, and if you are not going to use mwm as a Window manager, simply
download the latest LessTif sources from http://www.lesstif.org, run
./conifgure --with-x --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include and --x-
libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --enable-production=yes --enable-static=yes,
enable-sahred=no
then make
that will be it.
I do not suply precompiled LessTif binaries to LessTif.org any more because
LessTif libraries at now compile out of the box, under Cygwin.

Dear Cygwin users,
I was using cygwin B20.1 + Mumit Khan's gcc-2.95.2 + X11 libraries
(including lesstif).
Now, I installed new cygwin net release.
But, couln't find X11 libraries.
I know there are XFree86 libraries.
But, that's not what I want. (I think...)
I don't need X server...
My application needs X libs and Motif (or LessTif) libs to be compiled
and I have commercial X server program(something like eXceed).
Could you please tell me where I can find prebuilt binary files (
X11R6.4 Lib + LessTif ) for new cygwin?
I searched out the mailing lists and related links, but did not find
proper answer.
ftp.hungry.org does not seem to provide lesstif binaries for cygwin.
Most of X11R6.4 links seem to be related with cygwinB20.1 or older.
