[My apologies to those on xemacs-beta who will see this twice, and to
Dr. Zell, for taking so long to get around to forwarding this.
Also, note that M-x report-xemacs-bug is still appropriate if you
think it is an XEmacs bug; this is not a forked version, just one
configured for the Cygwin environment. Use your judgement as to which
list is appropriate for bug reports or discussion, and in some cases
it will make sense to send to both.

Hi
The package XEmacs is now available with the Cygwin distribution:
* http://xemacs.org/ (Homepage)
* http://ftp.us.xemacs.org/ftp/pub/ (Download location)
See the following announcements for XEmacs lisp packages and packages which
will handle conflicts between the emacs and ctags package.
DESCRIPTION:
============
XEmacs is a powerful, highly customizable open source text editor and
application development system, with full GUI support. It is protected
under the GNU Public License and related to other versions of Emacs, in
particular GNU Emacs. Its emphasis is on modern graphical user
interface support and an open software development model, similar to
Linux. XEmacs has an active development community numbering in the
hundreds (and thousands of active beta testers on top of this), and runs
on all versions of MS Windows, on Linux, and on nearly every other
version of Unix in existence. Support for XEmacs has been supplied by
Sun Microsystems, University of Illinois, Lucid, ETL/Electrotechnical
Laboratory, Amdahl Corporation, BeOpen, and others, as well as the
unpaid time of a great number of individual developers.
CYGWIN version:
===============
This version of XEmacs can be used in an X and native Windows environment.
If the DISPLAY variable is set the X version is used, when unset the
native Windows version is used.
