Sorry, I don't understand your reply, either.
To put it very simply: To intstall the snapshot:
(1) Where do I put the downloaded snapshot files?
(2) Do I run the 4 listed commands from a Windows command prompt,
or instead from within Cygwin.
I will greatly appreciate

You can put them where-ever you like. That's why the tar

After getting better instructions from Igor Peshansky than are in the
Cygwin FAQs about installing Cygwin snapshots, I installed the lastest
Cygwin snapshot.
Unfortunately, this did not fix anything with respect to running
Singular -- and in particular with respect to running it with Emacs.
I'm actually pretty good at logic, having written a good deal about it
in a book on axiomatic set theory. (And I have been known on occasion
to apply logic correctly in the real world.)
The issue was whether, to install a snapshot, one runs the commands
within cygwin or, instead, from a

Thanks for your reply that suggests to try a recent snapshot.
Unfortunately, I don't know whether the various, latest snapshot files
will help, since I haven't a clue which one or ones to download or, once
I've downloaded, what to do with it/them!
I see nothing on the snapshots page (to
Dear Mr. Eisenberg,
On the other hand, if I go to the subdirectory lib\Singular of the main
cygwin directory and double-click Singular.exe, then Singular does run,
in a DOS command prompt window (although I see message cannot open

Thank you for those pointers. By adding the environment variables
listed at the first URL, below, I can now indeed get singular to work
from a DOS command prompt window.
I can also get Singular to work in a Cygwin terminal window by starting
Cygwin and, at the bash prompt, invoking
