Hello,
Starting from no UNIX experience at all, I managed to successfully
install and run cygwin and then LAMMPS on my windows laptop. As I went
along, I kept track of my progress, and then wrote up a "tutorial"
explaining all the steps in great detail. Here it is:

Maybe this can be posted on the LAMMPS website?
If anyone sends me corrections or suggestions, I can make a revised version.
Best wishes,
