* As I said above, incorporate it into Cygwin. * Provide an optional spkg. * Provide (it with) Cygwin or a "patch" to Cygwin. * Run Sage in VirtualBox on Windows. * Use the Sage notebook interface in Windows, the server running on a proper operating system ;-) Note that Cephes is a general package not really related to Sage, and useful/required for porting/building other software to/with Cygwin as well. -Leif -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
