Hi,
I just installed cygwin from cygwin.com, the window opens with a bash-3.2$
prompt no colon - i am trying cygwin to have a command line c++ compiler
that behaves like linux. but commands like ls or cd arent recognised or
any command at all... what am i missing?
I would guess that you did not install them.
Try the built-in commands.
And then start setup again to install more packages. You will need gcc.
