Oh... drat again, yes.

Because it doesn't work as I want to use Python from within cygwin... and I've
been unable (so far)
to compile pygame OR use a precompiled version from within cygwin.

If it's impossible, then fair enough... I could then either
a) use precompiled binaries (the pygame.base &c. stuff) from windows/python
OR
b) use as linux box... and start again trying to install
freetype/jpeg/zlib/SDL_* and finally pygame (oh and Numerical python I
suppose)

However... I don't like things being impossible on computers... they probably
aren't, I'm just
doing it wrong.

Do you know anyone who has succesfully compiled pygame, with all the SDL_*
things as well, from cygwin
on a windows box ?
