Hi Michael.

I hope the vacation went well with you.

Would you be able to give a brief explanation as to how you managed to build 
only TinyX? I'm not sure that I follow. I've built older versions [4.2.* or 
something like that] of TinyX, but I don't understand how you could only 
build "some of this" & "none of that".

You never cease to amaze me, as to what can done with the various sources.


Sincerely, & with thanks,
Eugene T.S. Wong
