Due to Cygwin developing their own non-commercial installer for their freely available GNU C and Fortran 77/G77 compilers for Windows, the CCP14 based Cygwin install tutorial has been going out of date rather rapidly and could have been confusing people. The latest version of the Cygwin installer is actually quite slick being a full Windows GUI based install. Thus if you had difficulties with the previous command line/DOS window style installer - the latest is an improvement. Refer: http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/tutorial/compiler/cygnus-gnuwin32/ ---- Also, if you have firewall problems that are stopping FTP connections getting through as part of the Cygwin install - try an HTTP based mirror such as: http://programming.ccp14.ac.uk/ftp-mirror/programming/cygwin/pub/cygwin/latest/ Lachlan. -- Lachlan M.
