MinGW from @code{mingw.org} is another set of development tools that
produce native Windows executables, not dependent on Cygwin's POSIX
emulation DLLs. This is the original MinGW project, nowadays no longer
actively developed. Its files can currently be found only via the WWW
archive site known as the @dfn{Wayback Machine}. The latest MinGW
release files can be found here:

MSYS is a POSIX shell and minimal set of tools that are commonly used in
configure scripts. Like Cygwin, this environment uses a non-native
filesystem mapping to appear more POSIX like to the scripts that it
runs. This is intended to complement the MinGW tools to make it easier
to port software to Windows.
