Cygwin is a program that emulates (read: pretends to be) a *nix platform on
what's really windows. So you can use a Cygwin platform to run the
cross-compiler and downloader and whatever else that otherwise would only work
on Linux. So you need Cygwin.

Once you get everything working from the Cygwin prompt, you can set up BricxCC
so that the 'compile' and 'download' buttons invoke the 'make' and 'dll'
programs that are used to compile to .lx and download to the brick. At that
point, it becomes really easy, but you have to get it working under Cygwin
first. :)
