I recently installed Cygwin. I can use metafont (command <mf>), even under Xwindows. But after starting metafont, when I give the command <\relax> (for purely interactive use of metafont), followed by a draw- and a showit-statement my system teaches me that "Window support for X was not compiled into this binary" and tells me to use the command <mfw>. So, starting metafont with <mfw>,the command <\relax> causes my system to complain: "no info for format 'mfw'. I can't find the base file 'mfw.base'!". And indeed mfw.base is not on my disk, although mf.base is. So it seems that there simply is a file 'mfw.base' missing. What can I do about it?
