Cygwin/X - Development - XWin Server

Contributions to the XWin Server are more than welcome.

To-Do List

See the Cygwin/X To-Do List for a list of open tasks for the XWin Server.

Source Code from Cygwin's setup.exe

Use Cygwin's setup.exe to install the xorg-server package, and select the 'src' checkbox to install the source code. Currently this is the X.Org tree with multiple patches applied (including some needed just to build successfully), so this should be the starting point for those wishing to work with the source code.

Source Code

See the Cygwin/X Contributor's Guide for information on obtaining the Cygwin/X server source code and also compilation tutorials, compilation tips, expected build times, overviews of the technologies involved, and a full bibliography.
