You can get most of the libc documentation (referrence, proto's, etc) by running `info libc' from a cygwin shell. Not every single thing is documented, you should get what you need. BTW, this isn't how to program for linux on windows or any other combination of the two systems, it's merely the API docs for the C library (in this case Cygwin/Newlib).
