Building Lyx under cygwin
=========================
Two building systems are supported to build lyx under cygwin: the traditional
autotools (autoconf, automake, make etc), and a scons build system. The latter
is easier to use and is the preferred method. If you prefer using autotools,
you can find detailed instructions at lyx/wiki.
To build lyx, you will need to install the following cygwin packages
aspell gzip libiconv qt4-bin
aspell-dev jpeg libpng qt4-devel
gcc libintl libpng2
gettext libintl1 jpeg
gettext-devel libintl2 python
Then, build lyx with command
> python scons.py -f development/scons/SConstruct mode=release install
Optionally, you can install to a DESTDIR using a command similar to
> python scons.py -f development/scons/SConstruct mode=release DESTDIR=./test install
For more details about the use of scons, please refer to INSTALL.scons.

starting the porting business, and Enrico Forestieri for many cygwin-related
improvements.
