Nmake comes with visual studio C++, the version of cygwin we are using is
1.1.4, we have the assembler installed, and yes I would think you should be
able to use make instead of nmake.

Thanks.

What is MSDEV? Is it free or not? Does it come with Visual Studio or
Visual C++ or is it included in the msdn package from msdn.microsoft.com?
In any case I guess I should be able to use GNU make.

By the way do you have the as assembler installed in your bin directory?
What version of cygwin are you using?

Thanks!

Neil
