<x-flowed> From the Cygwin home page: "The Cygwin tools are ports of the
popular GNU development tools and utilities for Windows 95, 98, and
NT. They function by using the Cygwin library which provides a
UNIX-like API on top of the Win32 API." http://www.cygwin.com
I loaded Cygwin on my W2K box and have been experimenting with it. I
know from experience that Syslinux will build the same under
Cgywin/Windows as it does on a slink box.
Then there are Windows ports of Perl and Python.
