Good day,
 
I have successfully compliled command prompt application in for Windows platform using cygwin (1.5.25-15). I need to use cygwin as my program requires Unix header files and only cygwin allows me to compile my program in a Windows environment.
 
Now i need to improve my program to make it a GUI application. And this is where I need help.
 
I am intending to use QT4.5.3 to create my GUI. And I have read about installin QT in cygwin to do that. After reading all the archives, I am really confused. I need some clear instructions on how it can be down. 

Is it possible for you to guide me in achieving this? I need to install QT in cygwin so that I can make my command prompt application to become a GUI application.
I am using QT because it is able to create GUI application for Windows and Linux platforms. And more importantly QT is WYSIWYG which makes creating a GUI application simpler.
 
I would definitely accept other suggestions to achieve my objective if there are other alternatives. Thanks in advance for your help
 
Platform: Windows XP Professional
Compiler: cygwin (1.5.25-15)
 
 
Thanks & Regards,
Wilson
