[Parallels 3.0, MacOS 10.4.9] Cygwin install probs and how do I subscribe

Wed Jul 25 18:48:00 GMT 2007

First, how do I subscribe to the list? (I searched & searched but all I 
could find appeared to subscribe new lists to GMANE, not new subscribers 
to existing lists.)
Second: I'm installing Cygwin to try to install ATLAS; I'm working from 
Kevin Shappard's instructions @:
 http://www.kevinsheppard.com/research/matlabatlas/matlab_atlas.aspx
I've already emailed him and he said he no longer supports ATLAS.
In his instructions, he states: "Make sure to add c:\cygwin\bin to the 
path and add the ntsec flag to the CYGWIN environment variable. These 
steps are discussed in the "Setting Up Cygwin" section of the cygwin 
user's guide <http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/cygwin-ug-net.html>." 
However, it is unclear to me whether he means Windows' Path (accessible 
through right-clicking on My Computer) or cygwin's "UNIX" PATH 
variable? Same question regarding ntsec and CYGWIN? (I found that the 
"Environment Variables" section of "Setting Up Cygwin" is also not clear 
on this. In particular, after doing what that document suggests - set 
CYGWIN=tty notitle glob at a DOS prompt - I see no CYGWIN variable added 
to my environment variables in either Windows or in the Cygwin bash shell.)
The other problem I'm having is that Mr. Sheppard states that after 
cygwin is installed and ATLAS downloaded and unpacked, it is built w/ 
make, but my cygwin installation does not appear to have come w/ make - 
am I supposed to download and build that separately?
Thanks!
