Your right, I want a version of Xemacs that allows me to redirect the
display to another box (in my case a Redhat system). The prebuilt
version that I installed was the CYgwin version. I don't have any way of
knowing if it was built with X support built in. The default for Xemacs
is to support X but there is a switch to build a non-X version so it's
possible that the Cygwin version was built with the no-X option set. 

I've been trying to build it myself but the libXpm.dll is missing. I
downloaded the sources from xemacs.org bu the Makefile seems to be set
up to build a non-X version.
