Correct.

(for XP?)

Yes: http://x.cygwin.com/

I've been using it for several years now. Cygwin/X goes on _all_ my Windows NT/2000/XP systems as standard. Have since the late '90s.

I use SSH's Tectia client on XP. I see the dialog box that has enabling X tunneling. But it says I need a passive X server running.

It's much easier if you just use the OpenSSH client from within Cygwin itself.

Oh Wordstar!! My favorite word processor -- not.

It's just an option if you still know the key bindings. Most Borland IDE developers of the DOS-era did.
