XLiveCD 20041201

About:
 XLiveCD allows Windows users to run an X server and to forward X11 graphics
 using ssh without installing any software to hard disk. It is a Cygwin
 environment that is runnable from CD-ROM, including the X.org X server,
 openssh, DOS/Unix file conversion utilities, and text editors. XLiveCD has
 been given the feel of an application by a wizard that launches the X
 server when the CD is inserted in a drive. This provides an xterm and a
 desktop icon for launching more xterms. The wizard cleans up when the X
 server exits.
