Subject: Setup for "basic" development
Date: Sat, 26 Dec 2009 21:46:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <26930106.post@talk.nabble.com> (raw)


Hi, I've used various distros of Linux *just* long enough to know commands
like ls, cat, gcc something -o something, and cd. I was trying to setup
Cygwin but when I got to the window with stacks of checkboxes to tick or not
tick I got bewildered. What do I tick so that I can compile simple C
programs, use basic Unix commands, have Vim, ie. use a Linux shell to
replace Command Prompt?

TIA
Albert
