[xcrysden] Does anyone have a functional Xcrysden on windows7/cygwin?

[radu i]

Dear developers and users,

I've just installed the latest cygwin on a 64bit Windows Home Premium machine. (I have installed the following packages from http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/cygwin/: tcl-tk 8.5.11-1, fftw3 3.3.4-1, libGL1 8.0.5-5, libGLU1 9.0.0-1, xorg-server 1.15.1-4, bash 4.1.11-2, bc 1.06.95-1, coreutils 8.15-3, gawk 4.1.1-1, grep 2.16-1, gzip 1.4-1, ImageMagick 6.7.6.3-4, less 458-1, xmore 1.0.2-1 (there was no "more" package available), and the entire X11 server)

Running from the xterm (Xwin server launched before), I've untar the xcrysden-1.5.53-cygwin.tar.gz, and afterwards I've entered the scripts folder. There I've launched the .xcConfigure.sh script. In the end I've loaded the bashrc as specified.

When I launch xcrysden I get the following output:

I know that a similar problem was hopeless one year ago (http://www.democritos.it/pipermail/xcrysden/2013-August/001469.html), but did anyone solve this problem?

I thank you for your time and for your support!
