OK, first you need to have some kind of Linux distribution installed, doing this under CYGWIN is a hassle, error prone and a waste of time.
Use Ubuntu or OpenSuse as they are extremely easy to install alog with windows and not lickelyto destroy anything.
Once installed use the package manager to install the following packages:
- make
- flex
- yacc
- bison

Both above distributions have graphical package management tools with GUI but you can login as user root ( same as administrator in windows ) in a terminal and type:
On OpenSuse:
zypper install make flex bison yacc
On Ubuntu
apt-get install make flex bison yacc

This will download the packages along with eventual dependencies.

As a normal user download and then extract the files:
tar xzvf sc2v_latest.tar.gz

then to compile the files:
cd sc2v\trunk\
and there type:
make all
then
make docs

if you look into the examples directories you should see the translated files.

That's all, if you want to see how is done open the Makefile file with a text editor and look into it and add your own stuff.

Hope that helps,
