FWIW, the general answer to "Can Cygwin do..." ... that's generally a "Yes." The REAL question is how much you want to do this on Cygwin, versus trying to do it on just a plain UNIX desktop. But, ultimately, Cygwin can get you most of the way there, pretty easily ... the very last pieces may take s

Re: setting up new PC under Windows 11?

I believe all you need to do is to make sure your /etc/passwd file links whatever account you want to use to the proper Cygwin UserID (ie. the one listed in the tar file, if you want the "-p" flag to work in a predictable fashion). On Thu, Feb 17, 2022 at 3:21 PM Lester Ingber via Cygwin wrote:

Re: Python without X11?

First off... might be better if your GECOS wasn't set to "test test." (even "stinkf42" would be better). Secondly, have you tried "./configure --help" yet? Yes, it's an unusual request, but simple options to "configure" should help. On Tue, Apr 5, 2022 at 5:19 AM test test via Cygwin wrote:
