Hi Markus,

thanks for your answer.
But it does not work. I can compile the sources with the --enable-w11
flag. 
The error log notices an error in src/display/devices/XDRIVER (ignored).
But if i run "d.mon start=x0" i get a complaint that libX11.dll is not
found.
I have found:
src/display/devices/windows/libW11/lib/
libG11.dll
libX11.a (no .dll!)
And i have some "libW11.dll" around, don't know from where this comes.
My libX11.dll is in /usr/X11R6/bin, so this is from the X11R6 from
cygwin.
If i add /usr/X11R6/bin to the path, i get the error that the socket can
not be connected to. 

Do i have to deinstall X11R6?

I would like to test and to update the documentation, but i am clueless
on this. 

Andreas
