The following works for me in Cygwin (requires the installation of libraries such as libncurses-devel and openssl-devel from the standard Cygwin setup): ./configure \ --enable-nls -enable-widec --with-screen=ncursesw \ --with-ssl --enable-local-charset \ --enable-ipv6 \ --enable-default-colors \ --enable-cgi-links Once this has succeeded, make followed by make install should work.

There's several different ways - the approach with Cygwin should work using the configure script and generated makefiles. But the configure script doesn't look for pdcurses (which would be needed if you were building with mingw). With ncurses, similar issues (usually there's no packager interested). I've done some cross-compiles of lynx using ncurses to mingw, however + Debian's tools are reasonably miniminal -- but lack packages for openssl, etc. + Fedora's packages, which do include pdcurses, are not minimal (making them worthless for any application like lynx) If I were working on a 64-bit environment, I'd use Visual Studio Express and build the libraries as needed there. It's doable (wasn't for quite a while), but a few days' work. > I tried the description for bcc and it did not work and then I > installed Cygwin and all the necessary packages and it still did not > work.
