Harold,

My emails to the list don't come through. I have here an answer for a 
question
but it didn't appear on the list. Can you forward it.
Do you know why my messages don't appear on the list ? I checked that the
subscription address is the same as I use to send the messages from
(staf.verhaegen@imec.be)

greets,
Staf.

I can run CADENCE tools under cygwin/XFree86. I start the X server in full
screen (-fullscreen) and with a depth of 8 (-depth 8, this is 8 bit display
thus 256 colors) and with XDMCP to one of our UNIX hosts (-query 
hostname). If
you want to run your cadence tools in a window on your Windows desktop I'm
afraid you will need to witch your Windows desktop to 256 colors.

Staf.

  For every tool there are at least 2 uses: the one it was designed for
                  and the other for which it wasn't.
