Cygwin is one way to get the job done, certainly. And it adds a lot of other benefits. But if you don't have any other need for it, the Windows XP command line (and a few other tools built for Win32/64) are more than capable enough to do the same work as the configure/make/install tools, for the purposes of packaging and installing Roku channels.

Dynamitemedia(and destruk), what is your development environment like(OS and editor)? It can probably be adapted to more automatically build and install your channel changes and save you time as you develop. After you get it set up and working, and you can compare how effortless it is compared to the manual process, you'll probably agree with everyone else that it was worth it :). The more options developers have, be it windows, mac, linux, or other, the better!
This is what I am talking about, a well thought out response that helps expands all our knowledge.
Thanks gonzotek, I am for automation no matter what the OS.
