I distantly remember LWP having an X server, although I don't remember 
how functional it was. I think it was introduced at around the point 
that Client32 came out so it didn't get a lot of attention where I 
worked. I suspect it was never updated and may well be a bit flaky ... 
I'd go for one of the alternatives rather than it.

As to X clients, I seem to remember Exceed used to have that capability.

A better alternative might be to see if Cygwin allows something like 
this. Only if you're really desperate to use Windows though.
