Altera&#39;s build only requires CYGWIN to exist, it doesn&#39;t require that you use it from a unix-like shell. This means you can use most of the tools from the windows command prompt! Unfortunately, anywhere that you have to execute a sh script (which is the unix equivelant of a .bat script) it won&#39;t work from a windows command prompt for the same reasons .bat wouldn&#39;t work right under a shell in CYGWIN

Still, getting to know the cygwin shell is pretty painless and it&#39;s much better than the current generations of windows shells.
