The key to installing Cygwin is mounting the /tmp and so forth. A readme file for Cygwin should at a minimum include that vital piece of info. (If I missed that in your post please forgive me. It's late.) Also, you must select the proper tools before downloading cygwin. Those that could download Cygwin with the proper tools, have it mount properly, and compile / then make circlemud base on your instructions really do not need your instructions. You ask for recommendations, and here is one: Tell those that might dl cyg which tools to include, and tell those that might dl cyg how to complete the drive mount process. I'm not a programmer and had to slug my way through two versions of Cygnus/Cygwin. And as such a sorry hack , I can say your suggested readme file needs some flesh. -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | | Newbie List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/circle-newbies/ | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
