How can I add python support to Vim in Cygwin? I have never installed a

I have to download the vim source code and compile it with some python
libraries? But how do I do this? Can someone please help?
In the unpacked vim-6.3-1 source directory call
./configure \
--enable-multibyte \
--without-x \
--enable-gui=no \
--enable-pythoninterp
All but the last option are also set in the standard build. Note that
the --enable-pythoninterp option is untested on Cygwin. When configure
has finished, call `make' and `make install`. Since all path related
options are unset, this will install your version of vim under /usr/local.
So it doesn't collide with the Cygwin installed vim.
