You could probably use MinGW-win64 and MSYS directly on Windows 7. The two of them together provide all you need to run Unix-style configure scripts and compile C/C++ source code on Windows (in 32 and 64 bits). It's a much leaner option than Cygwin.
I have recently documented how to set up the two on the gvSIG CE Wiki. You might be able to make use of these instructions, as well: http://gvsigce.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Setting_up_the_GNU_Compiler_Collection http://gvsigce.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Getting_started_with_MSYS Best, Ben ----- Original Message ----- > J Layug wrote: > > Please bear with me as I'm new to GRASS.
