Getting emacs under cygwin?


I have just started playing with cygwin, and miss emacs.

I downloaded GNU emacs from their site (20.7), unpacked it,
and tried to ./configure it. I got this:

$ ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i586-pc-cygwin
configure: error: Emacs hasn't been ported to `i586-pc-cygwin' systems.
Check `etc/MACHINES' for recognized configuration names.

What should I do?

Or, is there a prebuilt emacs out there somewhere?

TIA
