The autotools -- except for the libltdl library from libtool -- are platform independent. I guess what you *really* want is a way to install OUR version of the -devel- autotools in such a way that they do not clash with the "regular" version you already have installed on your (linux?) machine. I've done this -- but not here. I'll send you my build scripts soon, but you'll have to build then cygwinish versions yourself. --Chuck
