I am using MikTeX as well. I use cygwin make & Makefiles, I build from
an rxvt/bash shell. I edit using cygwin-XEmacs. Since I'm on an NTFS
filesystem, I use hardlinks for various stuff -- but current symbolic
links don't work. It's possible that the new symlink format MAY work --
dunno yet.
I'm also using Pierre Humblet's port of xfig for figures, which works
pretty well. The only thing that doesn't work there is IMporting GIFs
or EPS files -- integration with netpbm and native-ghostscript doesn't
quite work right. (I could probably fix the netpbm integration problem
but it isn't that important to me; also ghostscript builds under cygwin,
I've heard, so I *could* do that but haven't bothered to yet.)
