G'day Alexander,

I've only really got in to cygwin since I've started having to run XP on
my laptop, so I'm not sure exactly what you mean. (I'm from FreeBSD stock
before then...)

Do you mean during the initial installation did I choose "unix" style 
files? If so, yes. (And the fonts I've been testing with are just the ones
installed by the cygwin package into /usr/X11R6/bin which I presume are
then mounted unix style.)

Thanks,
Greg
