Getting Started | Min. GWMin. GW Installation Notes. Min. GW may have problems with paths containing spaces, and if not, usually other programs used with Min. GW will experience problems with such paths.
Thus, we strongly recommend that you do not install Min. GW in any location with spaces in the path name reference.
You should avoid installing into any directory or subdirectory having names like "Program Files" or "My Documents", etc. No version numbering convention exists for Min. GW as a whole. Each package has its own version number, and the installer version number does not correlate, in any way, with the version number of any individual package which it installs. The preferred installation target directory is C: \Min. GWThe preferred installation method is using the automated installer tool, as described below. While a manual installation is possible, we do not recommend it, unless you have a very old version of MS- Windows which is unable to run the graphical tool.

After installation you will need to perform some additional tasks yourself to ensure your Min. GW applications will run. Most importantly, you will need to make changes to your PATH environment variable.
Be careful: there are two PATH variables which can be changed, and changing the wrong one can have significant consequences. Instructions for changing the correct PATH variable are provided below. You will also need to ensure you specify the correct installation target directory to the Min. GW environment. While it is possible to install Min. GW to a location other than C: \Min. GW (e. g. on a different drive), you must ensure that the Min. GW environment knows where it is located.
Instructions for doing this are also provided below. Graphical User Interface Installer. An automated GUI installer assistant called mingw- get- setup.

Note: you shouldalwaysdownload the latest available version of this; neveruse a possibly out- of- date copy, which may have been sitting on your local disk drive, or local network, for any appreciable period ).

It is recommended that you DO NOT select an "All Users" installation. When you have set the installation options to suit your preferences, click the Continue button to initiate the download and installation of mingw- get itself.

When you have completed the foregoing procedure, to the point where mingw- get is installed, mingw- get- setup. You may click the Quit button, to terminate mingw- get- setup.
If you choose this option, you may then run mingw- get later, at your own convenience, to add packages or otherwise manage your Min. GW installation.

After Installing You Should .. Regardless of how you installed Min. GW and/or MSYS, if yo did choose to install MSYS, you should check its configuration.
You need to ensure that MSYS knows where Min. GW is located, so: Open a Windows Explorer window and locate your installation directory (i. C: \Min. GW, or any alternative you nominated during installation).
Below your installation directory, you should find a directory named "msys", (normally in lower case letters, but mixed case, or all upper case is okay too); open this then find and open the additional subdirectories, "1. Within the "etc" directory, there should be a file named "fstab"; (if not, create one, as a new text file). Open this with a text editor; (you should be able to do this by right clicking on it, and in the popup menu select "Open" or "Open With", although you may find that you need to select a suitable editor application to do so).
Edit the file and ensure that it contains one line, (there may be others), which reads: C: \Min. GW /mingw. (substituting the FULL ABSOLUTE path of any alternative to C: \Min.
GW, which you nominated during installation); ensure that you follow this path name entry with at least one space, or tab, before typing the "/mingw" entry. Before you save the file, ensure that there is at least one blank line at the bottom, below all of the entries that may exist, then save and close the file.
Additionally, if you have installed MSYS, you are advised to create a start menu "Min. GW Shell" shortcut in your "Start\Programs\Min. GW" folder, (which you may also need to create); this should invoke the C: \Min. GW\msys\1. 0\msys. MSYS; (if you installed to an alternative directory, you should adjust the C: \Min.
GW prefix accordingly). Double clicking this shortcut will then open a command window with the correct environment set up for you, including the correct path references, allowing you to run any of the Min. GW or MSYS applications within that command window. Your Min. GW and MSYS installations should now be ready for use. Caveats: (exceptions)If you ever intend to run Min. GW or its applications using a cmd. PATH environment variable.
