Re: Need help getting started

If you've download the files to your desktop,  they'd be in a  
directory something like:

/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/username/Desktop

you might want to copy them to your home directory, then compile them  
from there:

cp /c/Documents\ and\ Settings/username/Desktop/*gz $HOME
tar -zxf MyApp.tar.gz
cd MyApp
make
make install

Then from msys, you can start the applications with:

openapp MyApp.app
