Paul,
Running cdk.exe should install the program correctly. Your autoexec.bat
should have environment vars like these:
SET PATH=%PATH%;D:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygwin32\bin;D:\gnuwin32\b18\tcl\bin
SET GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=D:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygwin32\lib\gcc-lib\
SET TCL_LIBRARY=D:/gnuwin32/b18/tcl/lib/tcl7.6
SET GDBTK_LIBRARY=D:/gnuwin32/b18/share/gdbtcl
SET
LIBRARY_PATH=D:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygwin32\lib;D:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygw
in32\i386-cygwin32\lib;
(substituting appropriate drive letter)
Yes, you should be able to compile C and C++ programs. As I understand it,
gnu-win32 will make assumptions based on your filename extension, but you
can also run g++ for c++ and gcc for c. Look through recent mailing list
messages too for help with newbie questions (I've only recently installed
gnu-win32).
