[CLN-list] cygwin help

[Andrei Kramer]

Greetings,
 I have been forced to install ginac on a windows machine and I ran into
unexpected problems. Everything I found on the web is quite old, e.g.:
http://www.ginac.de/pipermail/cln-list/2006-August/000212.html
and this ( http://www.richelbilderbeek.nl/CppClnInstallCygwin.htm ) claims
that
./configure
make
make check
make install

should do the trick, even in cygwin.

So, where might I get help when I see something like this(?):
