I have just posted a zip archive containing what I hope is everything necessary to download and run Magic-7.2 under Windows XP (and possibly others, though I haven't tried) using Cygwin and the Cygwin X server (which now runs in the Windows desktop background). Tht package contains a version of Tcl/Tk that is different from the one that comes with Cygwin in that it is compiled to run with X11 graphics (no small feat), and therefore is compatible with Magic (including the OpenGL version, although I am a bit confused about the operation of the XWin_GL server). Hopefully some people will try this out and I can get some feedback on how easy or difficult it is to get magic up and running following the instructions on the website. The web page where you can get the zip file and instructions is: http://bach.ece.jhu.edu/~tim/programs/magic Click on the "Magic for Windows" button on the left-hand side of the window. Regards, Tim
