I have tried using XFree86 (linux and cygwin) for Cygwin's XFree86 and
Linux's XFree86 and have found it to be extremely slow at refreshing the
screen making it nearly impossible to use MATLAB's editor
reasonably. However, using a MS Windows emulator like Xoftware or
Hummingbird's Exceed provides extremely fast response such that it is
useable with various programs including MATLAB. Is there a valid reason
for this? Is it being addressed?
Thanks,
Mark
