I have downloaded and installed XFree86-xserv 4.3.0-4, but it seems that 
it holds the old version of XWin.exe. In fact the menu doesn't work, 
while if I download the binary at 
http://www.msu.edu/~huntharo/xwin/shadow/XWin-Test96.exe.bz2 it works.

Bye,

	Danilo

P.S. Thank your very much for Cygwin-XFree: it's wonderful!
