-LyX has been ported to Win32 using the Cygwin environement. The port
-consists of a few small tweaks to deal with DOS-style pathnames, so
-LyX can use Win32 TeX distros like fptex and MiKTeX. There's also a
-cygwin TeTeX port, but the native Win32 ports have a definite speed
-advantage. Besides that, nothing fancy.
