A powerful, highly customizable open source text editor and application 
development system


CYGWIN NEWS:

Old CYGWIN NEWS:
================

* routine update

* removed --with-offixe from configure as it needs --with-dragndrop which
  doesn't work on cygwin right now

* this version uses again the original package-get.el as my local patch
  doesn't cleanly apply because of a major update to the package lisp stuff

* explicitely include --with-dialogs=motif when configuring
