I googled a bit about fortran, and it seems that "module" is a fortran
command. Note, that what you see when you open a cygwin window, is a
command shell (bash in this case), which allows you to execute certain
programs. It does not understand fortran commands.

I believe, you will have to install gcc's fortran compiler. Then you may
be able to compile and run fortran program. However, I'm not familiar
with that.

I'm sorry, but /etc/profile.d/modules.sh is totally unrelated to your
problem.

I strongly suggest, that you search for somebody that has experience
with Linux and fortran. Ask you supervisor if necessary. I assume, this
is work for you master thesis?

Eliot is trying to guide you through the process of building BigDFT. If
that works for you, that's fine. Then again, you should make sure that
BigDFT accesses the GPU it the most direct way possible, i.e. that it
doesn't have to pass the information through several layer of emulation.
With cygwin, there's a fair chance of that being the case.
I presume, you will do sort of benchmarking?
