You are not alone Karen, I am with you too!. Please let me know when you got the answer. In fact, I wanted to install cygwin so that I could Learn tcl programming, using windows98, as well as to run eggdrops from my home pc running on windows98. I would appreciate if members could tell me positively which are the modules i should download for my requirements. Ive read the documentation but I felt more comfortable with the latest replies here.
