Xiaoyu, it is not hard. Read the howto. Quite a few people do use the phpdoc system on windows. I wonder how come do you expect instant reactions, while you are refusing to set up the required environment for the translation.
I know it's not hard and I'm really good at Linux/FreeBSD. But my computer is too new (AMD64 KT890 GF6600) and i can not even run fedora's installer (Error then halt :S).
Also Linux and FreeBSD don't support Chinese well and I'd like to edit files under windows.
I've successfully build an enviroment under windows before. But cygwin is huge and I need time to download and install.
So i was too impatient to wait the error report from Derick... No suitable environment for me.
You don't need Linux. Cygwin is not too large to install. Let me repeat the question: have you actually read the current howto? It has a list of a few packages you need to get with cygwin. That is it.

I've read it here: http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/tools-on-windows.php
-----------
Note: Be aware, that cygwin is grown to be a very huge project and it includes many programs (such as postgres and apache) ported to Windows, which are not needed for phpdoc. We are unable to give you a list of needed components from cygwin (which you should download and install), because the basic tools are interconnected, and depend on each other. If you manage to find the smallest needed installation, do not hesitate to contact us, and send the solution to us.

I don't find a list so i have to install every possiblely needed packages. and I'm in China, the download speed from asia mirrors is really slow (3~6KB/s).
You'd know, I've already done my best ;) I'm a Chinese translator since 2001, i'm not a newbie.
Best Regards, Xiaoyu
