Introduction
Simply put, Cygwin provides a environment like Linux (Linux-Like) on Windows that allows users to perform Linux's program on Windows.
Strictly speaking, Cygwin is an environment that simulates GNU, not the Linux environment, with Cygwin's library (library), providing a Linux-like API environment in Win32 API environment. Using Cygwin, you can:
Migrate the programs on Linux to Windows without having to make a major changes, just take the original code as configure and make. Use common Linux tools, such as GREP, SED, AWK, etc. Write the Win32 Native Console or the GUI application.
Development History
Cygwin has developed in 1995, Cygnus Solutions (M & A of RedHat) is based on the GNU tool of the Free Software Foundation, which is transplanted to Windows, which has always been free software. In the initial period, only the command line window Bash and compiler GCC and other development tools can be used; now, even the X window system has been successfully transplanted, and the application software under the X window system is now gradually transplanted.
