2001-May-13: obsoleted by the rxvt
package included within the main cygwin distribution.
Download:
rxvt-2.6.2-cygwin1.1.README
If you are using the binary distribution, WATCH OUT!
** This precompiled RXVT package requires libX11.dll somewhere in your path.
   You can either download a copy from the same place you got this package,
	or get Suhaib Siddiqi's complete X11 distribution for cygwin from
	http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/xfree/
** This precompiled RXVT package requires a usable terminfo database in
   /usr/local/share/terminfo/* or where-ever $TERMINFO points. If you don't 
	have one, then you need NCURSES. There should be a precomppiled NCURSES
	package at the same place you got this precompiled RXVT package.
To build yourself:
unpack rxvt-2.6.2.tar.bz2
cd rxvt-2.6.2
patch -p1 < ../rxvt-2.6.2-cygwin1.1.patch
LDFLAGS=-Wl,-subsystem,windows \
  ./configure \
  --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include \
  --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib \
  --enable-xpm-background \
  --enable-transparency \
  --with-xpm-includes=/usr/local/include \
  --with-xpm-library=/usr/local/lib \
  --enable-next-scrollbar \
  --enable-menubar \

  --with-term=rxvt

-----------------------------------------
NOTE: I wanted to statically link with my libXpm.a rather 
      than use Suhaib's libXpm.dll, so I made the following 
		change to src/Makefile...
NOTE: If you do this, be sure that the libX11.a in 
      /usr/local/lib is the '-X' version, and not the 
		'-noX' version -- for more info,  see the xpm-3.4k 
		section of the cygutils website.
