Syntax error: "(" unexpected

[john@vincent.as]

Hi,

You're question shows a basic misunderstanding of cygwin.

You can run DOS and Windows programs using cygwin. The
Cygwin DLL allows you to **compile** many unix/linux
programs without change into windows programs that
will then run on DOS or windows. It is **not** an
emulator like vmware or wine or anything like that.

I hope this helps.
