Cygwin installation

Cygwin contains many, many packages. In the Cygwin Setup program, go to
the "Web" portion of the tree and you will find wget there.

[Sorry for English in a German language Forum.]

Hi Martijn,

hm ... looks like a Unix problem under Windows :-)) I think, you're
normaly a Windows user? Right?

Ok: under bash try at first:

> whereis wget

You should get nothing or any error message. (I hope, that you have a
normal cygwin installation and whereis will be found)

Alternatively you can search with Windows search for wget.exe.

Next you should look, what's in your PATH variable included:

> echo $PATH

If the found path for wget not included, include it with:

> set PATH=$PATH:<your path here without the last backslash>

Then bash should find wget, try it with:

> wget --help

If you get a help message from wget, all is ok, if not ... it's a
problem! :-))

Danke allen fur ihre hilfe,

sorry for my german, i can read it but my writing is very poor, i found
that the standard installation of Cygwin does not include all that is
needed, so i now reinstalled Cygwin with a lot more extra's. thanks.

Sorry for disturbing you all again,
i can now get to the following, but not pass it.

"cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/mspgcc login"

could any one help me out thanks

Martijn
