### Installing on Windoz
Use a .bat file to start a cygwin shell that has its path set to
support the Microcruft cl compiler by calling the vsvars32.bat script
from the Visual C++ installation.
```
tcsh-startup.bat
@echo off
call "c:\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools\vsvars.bat"
set path=c:\cygwin\bin;%PATH%
c:\cygwin\bin\tcsh
```
CMake is supposedly more compatible with the windoz environment
so you may have better luck wih it.
Cmake and build from the shell. Note that tcl and zlib must be
built with the Visual C++ compiler to link to the sta libraries.
mkdir build
cd build
cmakd ..
make
...
Good luck and don't bother me with windoz specific issues.
I am happy to say I haven't owned a windoz machine in 20 years.

## Bug Reports
Use the Issues tab on the github repository to report bugs.
Each issue/bug should be a separate issue. The subject of the issue
should be a short description of the problem. Attach a test case to
reproduce the issue as described below. Issues without test cases are
unlikely to get a response.
The files in the test case should be collected into a directory named
YYYYMMDD where YYYY is the year, MM is the month, and DD is the
day (this format allows "ls" to report them in chronological order).
The contents of the directory should be collected into a compressed
tarfile named YYYYMMDD.tgz.
The test case should have a tcl command file recreates the issue named
run.tcl. If there are more than one command file using the same data
files, there should be separate command files, run1.tcl, run2.tcl
etc. The bug report can refer to these command files by name.
Command files should not have absolute filenames like
"/home/cho/OpenSTA_Request/write_path_spice/dump_spice" in them.
These obviously are not portable. Use filenames relative to the test
case directory.
