Installing an X Server

The installation of an X Server is beyond the scope of this document. However, this technique has been tested using the free Cygwin X Server3 for MS WindowsTMand XFree864 for LinuxTM. It has been reported also to work with the proprietary eXceed X server and should work with any X Server. Apple MacintoshTMusers should note that a native X Server exists within OS X5.

Full detailed instructions for installation of the Cygwin X server can be found at this address.
