What a great offer!  I've never dreamt of that.

To tell the truth, however, I'm not a programmer, I'm quite new to
Cygwin, and I've had no exposure to the UNIX environment at all (NT
eigher.)  So I it might be a difficult thing.

Another problem is, I don't know anything about the language used in
(configure|Makefile)\.in.

But I'll give it a try.  I'll go to my Univ's library tomorrow.  If all
seems to go well, I'll send a report to this list.

Thanks, anyway.
