Cygwin
******

Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows.  It consists of two
parts:

   - A DLL (cygwin1.dll) which acts as a Linux API emulation layer
providing substantial Linux API functionality.

   - A collection of tools, which provide Linux look and feel.

   In addition to man pages and texinfo documentation, many Cygwin
packages provide system-independent documentation in  the
/usr/share/doc/ directory and Cygwin-specific documentation in
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/
