Hello,

 

is it the good address to ask a question about a problem of installation of TeXmacs (with cygwin) ?

 

 

 

Here is my problem (with all details)

 

I have just installed cygwin. And it seems to work.

Then i have loaded TeXmacs-1.0.7-src from the GNU Website. I saved it in

  cygdrive/c/tmp/

 

The operation

 

 tar -zxvf TeXmacs-1.0;7-src.tar.gz

 

worked : it made a lot of files (flooding the cygwin window).

 

Then i type

 

cd TeXmacs-1.0.7-src

 

and it works : we are now in cygdrive/c/tmp/TeXmacs-1.0.7-src,   and i type

 

./configure

 

and here is the result :

<<

checking build system type... i686-pc-cygwin

checking host system type... i686-pc-cygwin

checking for gcc... no

checking for cc... no

checking for cl.exe... no

configure: error: in 'cygdrive/c/tmp/TeXmacs-1.0.7-src' :

configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH

See 'config.log' for more details.

>>

 

I dont even know what $PATH means !

 

Thank you for helping !

 

Sincerly yours,

 

Richard
