Does anyone use PGS (http://www.physics.ucdavis.edu/~conway/research/software/pgs/pgs4-general.htm) on cygwin? I am unable to build the stdhep library by using the recommended procedure, and I am not a competent enough programmer to figure out why. John Conway's inbox is apparently full (failed delivery). If you were able to successfully compile and run PGS on cygwin, what did you do to successfully build the stdhep library? And, did you have to do anything else to fix some other problem? Please don't bother to tell me to use Linux; that is not helpful to me, and is simply my last resort.
