[Xastir] Another way to run XASTIR under Windows

[Lee Bengston]

Hi all,

I tried andLinux tonight.   It appears to be a great alternative to Cygwin
and VMware -
particularly for machines that have resource limitations that preclude using
VMware.
The andLinux page is at the link below:

http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/AndLinux

I was able to install andLinux under Windows and compile XASTIR
1.91relatively easily.  AndLinux
is based on Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy), so it takes advantage of the applicable
repositories.

Anyone who is happy with the binary version can install andLInux and grab
the
XASTIR binary via the Synaptic package manager in record time.

And to answer the question "Can you add it to the Wiki?". Done. It's in the
list of HowTo's below.
