Beginner Question

[JOSE ADRIANO BALTIERI]

         Another beginner bothering the list but, anyway, here it goes :

         Coming from Windows environment, no fear of command line, as a
matter of fact, I do like it a lot cause I think it is more productive. Love
4DOS/4NT and use them extensively. Also like their scripts (BTMs) and the way
they mimic some features of Unix, such as aliases and that tab feature
(filename completion).

         Well, wanna bring some Unix tools to this environment, such as
awk, while I would learn more about them and still keep under Windows. That
is, learn more about Unix without having to necessary "turn the table". Also,
mixing it all, that is, having those tools within my 4DOS scripts and prompts.

         Guess I'm in the right way with CygWin and thanks cause I found it.

         Finally : a tutorial for one who don't know even know what is awk ?

                                Obrigado/Thanks a lot,

Try `man gawk' for a short help or `info gawk' for a more
comprehensive introduction to gawk and the awk script language.

What is the main purpose of cygnus? Is it 
suitable for gameprogramming? Is there and IDE for it like RHIDE? Where can I 
get the inf files? it seems to come with info, but has no help 
files.
 
Any help will be appreciated.
