Announcing the first release of a new package to the Cygwin distribution: 
x2x.  The usefulness of this utility will become apparent to anyone with a 
PC side-by-side with an *ix workstation. Simply bring up an XWindows session 
on each machine, run x2x on the PC, and use your PC's mouse and keyboard to 
control your *ix workstation's display.  Works better and is cheaper than a 
KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) switch.  It also works much like a multi-headed X 
session.

To install/update this package, point your favorite browser to the Cygwin 
homepage (http://cygwin.com/) and click the "Install Cygwin NOW" link. Once 
running setup, look for the "x2x" package in the "XFree86" section.

Please direct any questions and/or comments to the Cygwin/XFree86 mailing 
list (mailto:cygwin-xfree@cygwin.com).
