INSTALLATION
^^^^^^^^^^^^
NuttX may be installed and built on a Linux system or on a Windows
system if Cygwin is installed. The MSYS environment is an option

Instructions for installation of Cygwin on a Windows are provided
in the following the provided paragraph.
NuttX can also be installed and built on a native Windows system, but
with some potential tool-related issues (see the discussion "Native

tiny setup.exe program and it does the real, internet installation
for you.
