Some related packages for the PC:
- cygwin1.dll (1.7 Mb)if you have cygwin installed,
you already have a more recent version of this
- cpp.exe precompiled C-preprocessor for Windows PCs
None of these are needed if you already have a standard C compiler
(such as gcc) installed on your system.
The recommended way to get gcc on a PC is to install
it from cygwin.
Full installation instructions for Spin itself on various platforms can be
found in README.html.
