Re: geomview under cygwin

I noticed several people posted some geomview related questions back in
2002. So, maybe someone will know the answer to this question.
I followed the instructions on
http://www.rzuser.uni-heidelberg.de/~mfoehl/Geomview_under_Windows.html
about compiling geomview under cygwin. I had to acquire the forms
library for Win32 from a different source
(http://ftp.fh-wolfenbuettel.de/links/unix/desktop/xforms/NT/GnuWIN32/),
since they seem to be temporarily unavailable from the xforms website
(https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/xforms). At any rate, everything
seems to configure and compile fine. However, when I try to just execute
geomview nothing happens - nothing shows on the screen and there are no
geomview related processes running. No error messages are sent to the
screen so I don't know what is going on.
Any ideas as to what the problem may be?
Your X server is actually running?
