[ros-users] ROS on (Cygwin) Windows!

[Brian Gerkey]

hi,

I'm delighted to let you know about the result of some fantastic work
done by Greg Brill and his colleagues to port ROS to Cygwin, making it
usable on Windows:
  https://github.com/codenotes/ros_cygwin

So far, they have most of Jade and Indigo working on 64-bit Windows
(tested primarily on Windows 10), with source and binaries available:
  https://github.com/codenotes/ros_cygwin/releases

If you're interested in running ROS on Windows, please give these
binaries a try. Keep in mind that this project is very much a work in
progress and not yet widely used. Please report issues to the tracker:
