I need to install a script for biogeographical analyses in Windows XP using Cygwin. The program is named lagrange and is written in C++. It actually comes with instructions to install in Linux and OS X, but as I know almost nothing of the languages used, I can't do it by myself.

You have to download the source and compile it yourself.

This is not an easy task, cygwin has a few special quirks that may need source alterations (especially as the source is still in beta).

If using the python version is not an option may I suggest that you try installing it in a virtualized linux machine (for example VirtualBox and Ubuntu). Once you are able to install it from source there you can try on cygwin.
