    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:

    Click on the "Magic for Windows" button on the left-hand side of the
    window.

    					Tim
