Re: AW: xfig for windows: libICE.dll missing


It took me about 2 minutes with Google to figure out that "fig2eps" is really an alias for "fig2dev", which is part of the TransFig package.

You should look for the existence of fig2dev in the tarfile you installed. If it's not there, you can go to http://www.xfig.org, download the source for transfig, and have at it.

Once you get ahold of fig2dev, try "man fig2dev" to figure out how to use it.

Currently I run startxwin.bat directly. What do you mean with
"change the Target to "startxwin.bat" (leaving the Start in path
unchanged)"?

Maybe you also know the answer to another problem. I want to create an
eps
file from a fig file. That fig file contains latex code (special flag
on).

On a Sun machine, I used fig2eps to create eps files (latex was started
and
the latex code was used to create nice looking equations).

What can I do under Cygwin to create such eps files with latex code?

Thanks a lot,
Volker
