where is freetype

[Richard Greenwood]

My apologies for an elementary question, but where is freetype? I am 
trying to build a program (Grass) that is looking for freetype, but not 
finding it, or more specifically, not finding freetype.h. I am assuming 
that the freetype includes and libs are a 'package' of Cygwin-xfree and 
can be installed via setup.exe. Am I correct, or do I need build 
freetype from source? Or maybe this is a freetype 1 versus 2 problem?

Regards,
