Cygwin provides Unix-like environment and command line interface on Windows for running unix applications.. I have installed Windows 7 on my laptop. Since I am command liner that’s why I wanted to install Cywgin on my Windows 7 machine.
Go to cygwin site-->click on install or update now-->Runà install from Internet--> Select mirror ftp site.--> create icon on desktop.

For the minimal installation you need the base packages, which contain the DLL, a Bash shell, the coreutils, findutils, diffutils, documentation, libraries and some basic UNIX tools like tar and grep. Select these basic packages and allow the setup.exe tool do its work.

To run an application on your Windows that is not in the Cygwin suite, you will need to compile the source.

Cygwin, provides a UNIX environment for Windows. You have to rebuild your applications from source if you want to use Cygwin functionality.
