I'm working to get the ast-ksh cygwin download installed under Cygwin 1.7.
I've run into a couple pecularities. First, the file that gets downloaded is ast-ksh.blahblahblah.tgz . I presumed it was a gzip'd tar file, but discovered that, instead, it was a plain tar file.
I extracted the files, and the README that is extracted keeps talking about the use of "bin/package" . Since my cygwin doesn't have a package command, I'm a bit baffled as to what the actual next step is.

Has anyone made it through the twisty mazes to get to the good stuff inside?

Thanks!
