The file to patch is here:
http://pdx.freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin/XWin.man?root=xorg&only_with_tag=CYGWIN
There are instructions for pulling down our CVS tree here:
http://x.cygwin.com/devel/server/
The User's Guide documentation will be helpful (the man page should
contain at least the information in the User's Guide section on
command-line parameters):
http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ug/configure-cygwin-x-options.html
The definitive resource for command-line parameters specific to XWin.exe
is in winprocarg.c:
http://pdx.freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin/Attic/winprocarg.c?root=xorg&only_with_tag=CYGWIN
A helpful guide for which parameters cannot be used together is in
winvalargs.c:
http://pdx.freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xwin/Attic/winvalargs.c?root=xorg&only_with_tag=CYGWIN
Finally, I usually describe how to use a new command-line parameter in
the Change Log when the new parameter was introduced. So, go to the
change log and do a quick search for a particular parameter that you see
in winprocarg.c to get some information about what it does. Here is the
full change log:
http://x.cygwin.com/devel/server/changelog-full.html
I hope that helps. I will really appreciate an updated man page.
