Pam. Regex. Nas. Minimal SYStem. MSYS is a collection of GNU utilities such as bash, make, gawk and grep to allow building of applications and programs which depend on traditionally UNIX tools to be present. It is intended to supplement MinGW and the deficiencies of the cmd shell. An example would be building a library that uses the autotools build system.

Users will typically run ". /configure" then "make" to build it. A common misunderstanding is MSYS is "UNIX on Windows", MSYS by itself does not contain a compiler or a C library, therefore does not give the ability to magically port UNIX programs over to Windows nor does it provide any UNIX specific functionality like case-sensitive filenames. Installing MSYS Up to MSYS 1.0.11, all components of MSYS were distributed in one single installer you downloaded and ran. For convenience, you can follow the instructions below to install 1.0.11. Previous MSYS versions (up to 1.0.11) These instructions were based on the Enlightenment Wiki. C:/mingw /mingw c:/java /java . Cool, but obscure unix tools :: KKovacs.

By Gina Trapani Your browser does a good job of fetching web documents and displaying them, but there are times when you need an extra strength download manager to get those tougher HTTP jobs done. A versatile, old school Unix program called Wget is a highly hackable, handy little tool that can take care of all your downloading needs. Whether you want to mirror an entire web site, automatically download music or movies from a set of favorite weblogs, or transfer huge files painlessly on a slow or intermittent network connection, Wget's for you.
