I attempted to install on Windows XP the version of cygwin via cygwin's setup.exe and their

as instructed under "Installing TeXmacs under cygwin" and following those instructions.

I seem to be getting a Path problem: after opening a window and typing "texmacs &"
I get:

"

You need to have Guile installed in your Cygwin
environment.

I would guess that when you type:
[[
$ guile <Carriage Return>
]]

under a Cygwin bash prompt, it spits you an
error.

If it is the case, Guile remains to be installed
under Cygwin.
