I want to find a replacement for Hummingbird Exceed. I know that Cygwin includes an X server, but I'm not interested in all of Cygwin. What would be the minimum I'd need to install to be able to run Cygwin/X? In case it matters, I'd like to run the X server with the -multiwindow and -clipboard parameters.
Thanks!

Dear Amanda !
I have packed a Wise-Installer with a some-what minimal installation. It
uses the windows fonts and this way saves 14M of fonts. It does include
a full bash + utils and SSH so it is not as minimal as it can be. The
Install.exe is about 12M.
I can send you the .exe but you will find that it has some specialized
stuff for the purpose it was made. (automatic connection to a Linux
application server). I can also send you the files listing, and the wise
script, so you can pack your own.
