         I just used the Cygwin installer to install it -- I'm lazy!  LOL!

         It appears the dir is at least in there somewhere, although 
when I issue the command, I get back a blank line, as if I'm in an 
empty directory.

         Maybe I just don't know how to start Xastir?  I type xastir 
and hit the Enter key, and get back a blank line, and no Xastir 
application.  None that I can see, anyway.

         Thanks again,
         Earl
