Cygwinites--
        I would like to use Cygwin to compile several programs to which I
have access in C source code only.  I have tried using the recommended
"install from the internet" option.  It was suggested to me that I get the
following packages:  ash, bash, cygwin, gcc, binutils and make.  However,
when I try to select them, the last three are listed as "n/a" in the
development group.  Meanwhile, when I tried to download/install the first
three, a bunch of other stuff started coming over, too.
        Can you give me some guidance?  I simply want to be able to compile
source code to make an executable I can run on my Win98 machine.

Thank you!
Leonard Williams
