For other projects Cygwin is ideal: identical shell scripts on windows, Linux
and OSX.
So I don't want to disrupt this environment installing Mingw. Anyone having
guidelines for
mingw (msys) and cygwin coexistence?
Anyway, if the cygwin route does not go anywhere and mingw installation does
not disrupts
the cygwin environment, then I will go for the mingw osg solution.
Thanks for all!
