This chapter discusses the installation of the GNU tool chain on a computer running the Microsoft Windows operating system.
This chapter was originally written by Geoffroy Montel <g_montel@yahoo.com> with input from David Fiddes <D.J@fiddes.surfaid.org>. It was based upon his successful but unnecessarily painful efforts with Cygwin beta versions. Cygwin and this chapter have been updated multiple times since those early days although their pioneering efforts and input is still greatly appreciated.
