Hi Daniel,

There is no "official" support for cygwin with STK.  However, you may  
find past emails in the list archives about getting it to work,  
especially from Ge Wang.

That said, STK should work in cygwin once you get a makefile properly  
configured.  If you have experience with autoconf, perhaps you can  
modify the configure script to properly handle the cygwin option.   
You basically need the __WINDOWS_DS__, __LITTLE_ENDIAN__, and  
__WINDOWS_MM__ preprocessor definitions, plus you need to link to  
dsound.lib, winmm.lib, and Wsock32.lib (this is described in the  
"Compiling" section of the tutorial).  There may be other libraries  
that are necessary to explicitly link to when using cygwin.

Regards,
